Please can anyone help? I have a lovely 80's pattern for a baby jacket that uses Phildar Kadischa for the ribbing, now discontinued. Ravelry says it was Super Bulky www.ravelry.com/yarns/library/phildar-kadischa but I can't identify one that wouldn't be too bulky. Anybody have any suggestions please? (I've actually got enough of the main colour from first time round!)

Have you looked on or asked for help on ravelry.com? Someone there will either know the answer or send you in the right direction.

I found this website which lists a lot of brands and labels of yarns in groups It might help.http://store.knitting-warehouse.com/yarnbyweight.html

Thank you both for taking the trouble. I am being a bit dim about this, will definitely try asking on ravelry.

Any wool/yarn with the same or very similar stitch count will work. I.e 16 x 18 to a 10 cm square.
