Aran & Worsted Knitting & Crochet Yarn & Wool
Aran wool and worsted weight yarns are often interchangeable, but actually different weights. Worsted weight yarn is finer and knits on 4.5mm needles, and aran yarn is knitted on 5mm needles. Aran wool is sometimes known as heavy worsted weight or 10ply, too. If you love a speedy knit or crochet make, aran and worsted weights bring all the drape of a finer yarn but work up faster than their lightweight cousins. Ideal for crochet and knitted garments, accessories and homeware. Not sure which yarn weight is right for you? Check out our handy yarn weight chart! So many yarn brands including Paintbox yarns offer some great aran and worsted options in all colours and fibres.
