Formula breakdown

Formula

yarn = area × density × 2 × pile height

= 400

Note

Simplified model: these are standard craft estimates based on rectangular layouts, quoted gauge and nominal densities. Real fabric nap, directional prints, shrinkage, pattern matching, yarn lots and supplier SAP values vary, so always make a swatch or test piece and buy a little extra.
