Do I have enough yarn in my stash for a project?

Save each yarn’s metres per full ball and record your available whole or partial balls by colour and dye lot. Set the project’s required length, yarn reference, weight category and colour. The matcher shows qualifying batches, their available length, the required ball quantity and any shortage.
