@rrose 8632960: We are working on developing a method for designating yarn weights in our patterns. You can easily substitute a DK or sport weight yarn in this pattern. Hope this helps! -- Editor of FaveCrafts

This isn't just for this article. I have a complaint in that it would be very helpful if ever pattern had a yarn gauge on it like 1-fine, 2 fine/baby, 3-dk/sport, 4-worsted weight, etc. some of us are allergic to wools and wool blends. I have found that many patterns work up just as well with different yarns if I can find out the yarn weight(s) needed to obtain the gauge. Thank you, Denice A. Rose
