If you are considering knitting this sweater & if i was making it for me i would use only 2 strands of 2ply throughout to make a 4ply weight sweater....that's quite heavy enogh because its roasting warm ! If you were to knit it that way you would need 420 grams ish or 18 to 19 balls.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07205515680390101457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6006065133656498002.post-86976175964216237152013-11-12T11:47:01.755-05:002013-11-12T11:47:01.755-05:00How much wool of qiviut I've needs for a sweat...How much wool of qiviut I've needs for a sweater 6-ply, type 2nd sweater ?

We take less profit and sell more yarns and knitwear plus we are a retailer and not a wholesaler. The stores buy in qiviut products and take 100% profit this drives the retail price up. we make all our own yarns and knitwear too so this makes us very competitive, next year 2013 we are moving the business to Ontario so we can increase our production......Thanks !Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07205515680390101457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6006065133656498002.post-27537318233787509222012-04-07T14:00:50.243-04:002012-04-07T14:00:50.243-04:00Do you do special orders?
