Yarns can be made up of as many as eight plies of yarn! Eight-ply yarns are often called a “cabled yarn” since the eight plies are braided into a smooth cable. Worsted yarns come in a variety of plies – from one-ply to eight-plies.

 When thinking about plies, the general rule is that the more plies of yarn, the less likely the yarn will pill and break.

It makes sense, however, to buy only a few supplies when you're new to knitting and

just getting started. As you try different projects & develop your own style you will add more supplies to your stash.

However, in saying that I had spent hundreds & hundreds of dollars on tools, notion & accessories before I realised, I had made a mistake buying everything separately.
