How to Calculate Leftover Yarn After a Project

Have you ever wondered whether the yarn left after finishing a project is enough to make another one?

Here’s a small tip that’s very easy to apply:

👉 Step 1: Check the yarn label
Length ÷ weight
→ This tells you how many meters of yarn are in 1 gram

👉 Step 2: Weigh the remaining yarn
Remaining grams × result from Step 1

Example:
Yarn label: 300 m / 100 g
→ 1 g = 3 m

Leftover yarn: 40 g
→ 40 × 3 = 120 m of yarn

This method helps you make better use of your yarn, avoid waste, and plan your next project more easily 💛
