Hello Everyone

Help: I have a pattern that calls for 250yards of crochet thread I want to use DMC and it only has 50 G' (I belive that is Grams)so can some one please tell me how many Balls of thread I will have to have of this thread to make 250 Yards

I ask at HL but they did not know

Thanks ahead of time

There is no real way to know - grams is a weight measurement and of course yards is a length measurement. It all depends on how thick and heavy the fiber is. Now, you're talking about thread so we know it isn't terribly heavy. What brand and type is it? DMC Traditions, Cebelia, etc?

Hi Julie it is dmc Cebelia 50g size 10 Ecrut

Thanks

I know that Dmc has discontinued putting the yardage on their balls of thread. Who knows the logic behind that one? Not I. Before I lost this information I made me a file that I can refer to to know my yardage for a project. I took this off of balls of thread I had with the yardage still given. Hope this helps you.
