Yarns are made up of a number of plies, each ply being a single spun yarn. These single plies of yarn are twisted in the opposite direction (plied) together to make a thicker yarn. Depending on the direction of this final twist, the yarn will be known as s-twist or z-twist. For a single ply, the direction of the final twist is the same as its original twist.
Yarn quantities are usually measured by weight in ounces or grams. In the United States, Canada and Europe, balls of yarn for handcrafts are sold by weight. Common sizes include 25g, 50g, and 100g skeins. Some companies also primarily measure in ounces with common sizes being three-ounce, four-ounce, six-ounce, and eight-ounce skeins. Labels on yarn for handcrafts often include information on gauge.

If you make a garment or a blanket in all one color, you have to purchase the yarn all at one time.
Check the yarn label for dye lot. Warning; no dye lot yarns can have color variations too.

Check the weight of the yarn

Check if the weight of your yarn is suitable for the project you are going to crochet.
A fine yarn might be perfect for a baby blanket or bed covering, but not suitable for a poncho or other garment, that is designed to keep the cold out.

The weight of your yarn is also depending on the size of your crochet hook, because the hook will determine the size of the stitches and that will have an impact on the thickness of your crochet project.

The type of yarn must work for the type of garment you are making.
For instance, fun fur yarn will make a great scarf but is not practical for a blanket or a placemat.
Select your yarn accordingly your crochet project and keep in mind how the yarn is going to be used.

Yarns

Yarn can be made from many different materials, some natural, others synthetic.

Natural yarn: Natural materials used to make yarns include angora, cashmere, mohair, cotton, silk, and wool. Natural fibers are prized for their texture and suppleness.

Synthetic yarn: Common synthetic materials used to make yarn include acrylic, nylon, rayon, and polyester. Synthetic fibers are water-resistant, strong, and fire-retardant.

Blended yarn: Blended yarn combines the best qualities of natural and synthetic yarns.

You can also find many specialty yarns such as handspun & handpainted yarns, festive metallic yarns, and frilly eyelash yarn. The thickness of a yarn is determined by how many ply's it has. A ply is a single strand of yarn. The strands are then plied, or twisted together to form the yarn.

The thickness of the yarn you select will affect the overall weight and texture of your garment. When you are selecting a yarn to purchase, you can often find helpful guidance on the knitting pattern you select.

Yarn is often wrapped in balls or cylindrical skeins and usually sold by weight.
U.S. suppliers usually sell yarn in skeins of 3, 4, 6, or 8 ounces.
