I just learned how to knit recentlyI know that the knitting patterns posted online usually tell you very specifically which size knitting needles and which size yarn you should be using, but I don't want to have to keep buying the exact size recommended for each pattern I want to make, so I was wondering, is there any sort of general rule to figure out which size you should be using? For example, if I'm using very thin yarn, would it be best that I use a very thick needle, or would a thin one be better? .Does it even make that large of a difference which size I use?
Yarn has a paper band around it which tells you the recommended size needle to use for that yarnHowever for your item it's your choiceGenerally a finer yarn needs a finer needle and a thicker yarn a thicker needleThis because using a fine yarn with fat needles will give a very loose holy fabric that will be floppy and horribleBut if that is the effect you want that's fineUsing a fine needle with thick yarn will produce a stiff fabric without the lovely drape that knitted fabric is supposed to haveAgain though if that is what you want to acheive that's fineIf you are making a garment or an item which has to fit then size does matter a great dealThe needle size affects the gauge i.ethe number of stitches and rows per inchIf you use a fatter needle the item will come up largerUsing a finer needle will make the item smallerSo if you knit a sweater and do not make it using the gauge stated on the pattern the sweater will not fit.
soluble and regularlyinsoluble is not absorbed through the gut and will not make any diference.
Psyllium seeds or husk is very beneficial for constipation, and is recommended highly in AyurvedaIt has helped me a lotI have a doubt for Stacey thoughPsyllium seeds/husk are cited as a good source of Soluble fiber, which according to the definition of soluble fiber would mean that they do not aid in constipationHowever, the real-life effects are the oppositeIt is one of the best natural diuretic and laxative around, and i am talking from experience!
