Yarn question

#1

I would like to make the knitted dishcloth and teatowel.

I have a cone of cotton which says…“for knitting machines and weaving looms” it says on the wrapper…can I use this for regular knitting needles? 100% cotton 4 ply. Don’t own a knitting machine.

On the wrapper…4sts. = 1inch
it says use a size 7 needle…is this the same as a knitting needle, and if so…mm. is it about 4.5…

Thank you in advance. :smiley:

You can hand with it perfectly well. It’s on the cone so it will fit on a knitting machine. Sugar & Cream yarn can be purchased on cones, too.

I say go for it.
