Here is a nice resource for info on yarn weights. I have included a link
plus pasted the info in below the link so you can access whichever works
best for you.

 

Note that the information is in a table format so when using jaws
control+alt+ left or right arrow through the column headings and up and 
control+alt+down arrow through the items in the columns.

 

Enjoy.
