    Yarn Notes: In Cotton , Worsted, Wool, Linen, and Dewsbury Counts, the higher the number the thinner the yarn. In Denier, Metric, Decitex and Tex the higher the number, the thicker the yarn. Also, a rule of thumb is that a high bulk acrylic is usually 2 counts thicker than a regular acrylic. Acrylic is usually in the worsted count, cotton in cotton count and nylon in denier.
