DKY Knitters Forum.

I want to crochet a shrug that i have got from the netherlands,i am ok with terminology but!The seller has stated that it takes:
3ply fingering weight cotton,i e mailed the seller and she said that she made it from:KRISTALL BAUMWOLLE (GERMAN )??????Can anyone please tell me the equivalant in uk.
e.g.=3ply knitting cotton
crochet cotton
3ply wool
Would be most appreciated.
Thanks
Mandy

I don't know if I'm right but Baumwolle is about 600 m/g. If she mentioned it's a 3 ply finger weight cotton, I believe you should try using a superfine knitting cotton. I'm not an expert though cause I've just started with this hobby.
