FREE Yarn Guide

Hey Y'all!! It's time you discover the yarn world with confidence. This free guide from The Soulful Now breaks down every yarn weight in a clear, beginner-friendly way—so you can finally understand what all those labels mean and which projects each weight is best suited for. From delicate lace to cozy super bulky, you’ll find recommended makes, helpful examples, and creative inspiration for each category.

Inside, you’ll also find special notes from me, Alyssa, sharing the insight I wish I had when I first started crocheting. I explain how tension really works, how to adjust it, and how your hook choice can completely change the look and feel of a stitch. You’ll learn how to pair yarn and hook sizes intentionally to create drape, structure, texture, and the exact vibe you want for every project.

Whether you’re planning your next make or just want to feel more confident walking down the yarn aisle, this guide is designed to help you choose with clarity, create with purpose, and enjoy every stitch along the way! At least, that is the goal and I hope it helps you achieve confidence with your yarn selection.
