Apologies, first. I'm a novice and there is so much to learn! I would like to weave the Moscow Nights tea towels from March/April 2015 Handwoven. The project calls for 8/2 cottolin. I have quite a lot of 8/2 cotton I need to use and cannot afford to purchase the cottolin right now. I see from the master yarn chart these yarns have the same yd/lb but very different meters/kg and I don't understand that at all. Would I need to make changes to sett (or anything else, for that matter!) to use 8/2 unmercerized cotton in place of 8/2 cottolin?
Thank you!
