I am just getting into socks so I will choose Fingering!
I was worried about you not posting Wednesday or Friday!
I’m debating taking out wednesday posts or doing something different on that day….friday I was having some tech difficulties, then we lost electric for a spell so as soon as I could I posted the video…no worries:)
Worsted most often and I love thick & quick.
I like to use worsted weight for my charity knitting and I like to use fingering weight for my shawls.
hmmm Most of in terms of how often or in terms of yardage? Probably use fingering weight the most often. But in terms of yardage I probably use more lace.
Fingering, I love sock yarn.
Hi, Seen your video, love the head scarf and holiday bling behind you… I use mostly fingerling, and some DK.
Fingering….I love socks and shawls! 🙂
I end up using worsted the most because it is the easiest for me to find. My favorite weight of yarn is actually a mystery to me because it came from a sweater that I bought and took apart for the yarn.
Fin gering is what I use the most. Thanks!
Brat58 @ Ravelry = My answer to your question is DK Weight! I love the fabric it makes! It’s suitable for any season! My second would be bulky. I love bulky yarns for quick knits, you can actually make something very quick and it looks like you spent a lot of time on it! Thank you for your offer!! I so enjoy your videos!
I like to use 4ply and 3 ply yarn for knitting socks and shawls with.
Hi.. I so enjoy your videos!! Thank you for your research and information on the performance of different needles. I use worsted the most (quick knits – quick gifts – instant love!) but it’s not my favorite to work with… for myself anyway. When knitting for myself, I prefer fingering to lace – I’m digging the versatility of “sock yarn” for shawls, and lighter sweaters, and it’s just so luxurious to know how many stitches you invested on YOU when you create from these weights for yourself!!

I like worsted. Having so little time to knit, I can actually get stuff done in worsted (or even bulky once in a while).
Depends on my mood. Bulky is fun when I went to get something done. Sock/fingering is my other favorite when I want something small and delicate.
Oh man, I love fingering weight so much. Just gotta love all the socks and shawls you can make! I love fiddly stuff though!

I love knitting socks so fingering. But the instant gratification of bulky is hard to beat, especially after using fingering.
Lately I have been loving Aran weight yarn — instant gratification. Thank you for the great review of the needles and your results with them. I think the Signature needles will have to be for me.
Just asking…… where did you get the beautiful snowflake lights?
I think I got them at the dollar store of all places lol
Thank you. I’ll have to check them out next year. Those are just gorgeous.
I use fingering for my knitting, and worsted for my crochet.
I love worsted weights,,, use mostly cottons in my knitting but have been learning to use drop-spinnendle to make my own to woolen blend yarns….lol they are really cool for Yule gifts!
Me…I love bulky yarns. They make me feel like I’m a fast knitter…did a hat and a cowl in 2 days. 😉
Aran or worsted, unless it’s socks and then it’s fingering!
Sweater is looking great; very pretty! Love the handspun too!
I like all weights of yarn. My sweater yarn can vary in weights.
I love to knit All Sorts of things and use all yarn weights.
There is mostly Fingering in my stash though.
Happy 2013!
I’m loving fingering/sock yarn.
