Medium weight yarn is the most versatile category in the range. This weight is the most commonly used in knitting and crochet, as it suits a very wide variety of projects: garments for adults and children, accessories such as toques, scarves, and mittens, home goods such as blankets, baskets, and facecloths, as well as toys and standard-sized amigurumi. The needles and hooks recommended for this weight are widely available and well documented in the majority of intermediate-level patterns, making it a natural starting point for those learning the technique. The available selection covers several compositions with distinct properties. Cotton yarn produces a firm fabric with good stitch definition, ideal for structured projects and items that are washed frequently. Wool or acrylic yarn provides elasticity and makes it easier to correct mistakes mid-project, which is appreciated by beginners. Merino yarn stands out for its softness and comfort against the skin, suited to garments worn directly on the body.
