Confused about yardage listing
When I first saw Rueca, the yardage was listed at about 150 yards. Then I saw the product description here on Jimmy Beans that said '285 yards minimum'. I ordered six skeins, which should easily be enough for a sweater, but upon measuring the skeins measuring length of skein, double that, and multiply by number of strands. Divide by 36 for yards my skeins averaged 123 yards! Minimum being 87 a thinker strand skein and the highest being 164 much thinner strands, for a total of 782 yards total for my six skeins.
I love the thick/thin of this yarn, and understand how this impacts the yardage, but based on that sample 285 as a minimum is incorrect and misleading.
