WPI-Tool



I have wanted to make a WPI-tool for quite some time now. I really need to measure my yarns this way, so today I decided to get down to work.






I don't exactly like working with wood, but I managed to make a nice tool.






I've already tried it out with some yarn I spun a couple of days ago to sell on Etsy :-) (Coming soon!)

  1. i just would like to know, why it is sooo good or reasonable to mesure the "wpi".
    i am glad for an answer.

  2. It's just a comfortable way to express how thick a yarn is. Especially with art yarn, which may include quite heavy stuff (like pearls or charms), it is a lot better to know the wpi than the relation of weight and length of the yarn.
