Collection: Fingering Weight Yarn ( Super Fine )

Fingering weight yarn, also known as fingering yarn, super fine yarn, or yarn weight 1, is ideal for lightweight sweaters, shawls, socks, baby clothes, and fine accessories. This versatile yarn weight is perfect for both knitting and crochet, offering beautiful drape and crisp stitch definition for intricate patterns.

Yarn weight number symbol: 1

Also known as: super fine yarn, sock yarn, yarn weight 1, size 1 yarn

Knitting gauge: Approx. 6.75–8 stitches per inch (27–32 stitches per 4 inches)

Recommended knitting needles: US 1–3 (2.25–3.25 mm)

Crochet gauge: Approx. 5.25–8 single crochet per inch (21–32 stitches per 4 inches)

Recommended crochet hooks: US B/1–E/4 (2.25–3.5 mm)

Fingering yarn weight sits just above lace weight yarn and includes light fingering yarns as well as sock yarns designed for durability. Sock yarns often contain nylon or polyamide for added strength, perfect for long-lasting handmade socks.

Fingering weight cotton yarn is especially popular for breathable summer garments and baby projects. It also works well for detailed colorwork, lace patterns, and lightweight layering pieces.

At Little Knits, explore an extensive collection of wool, cotton, and hand-dyed fingering yarns — all at unbeatable prices. Whether you're planning baby clothes, cozy socks, or lightweight accessories, you'll find the perfect yarn in this fingering weight category.

💡Tip: Blend fingering yarn with lace weight mohair for added softness and halo, or double up fingering yarns to create a DK weight with custom color effects!
