is this what you mean

CONVERTING NUMBERS ON LABELS

302 Meters/100 Grams to Yards/Pound:

Multiply the meters (302) by the number of grams per pound (454) to the hundredth:
302 x 4.54 = 1,371 meters per pound

Then, multiply the 1,371 meters per pound by the conversion factor from meters to yards (1.094) -or- divide the 1,371 meters per pound by the conversion factor from meters to yards (0.9144)
1,371 meters x 1.094 = 1,500 yards per pound and 1,371 meters ÷ 0.9144 = 1,500 yards/pound



1,500 Yards/Pound to Meters:

Multiply the total yards/pound (1,500) by the conversion factor from yards to meters (0.9144)
1,500 yards x .9144 = 1,371 meters

Then to find out how much yarn there is per 100 grams, divide the total meters (1,371) by 4.54
1,371 meters to a pound ÷ 4.54 = 302 meters per 100 grams

CONVENIENT CONVERSIONS

1 oz. = 28 (28.349) grams
1 pound = 454 (453.584) grams
500 grams = about 17.6 oz.
450 grams = about 1 lb. (15.9 oz.)
400 grams = about 14.1 ounces
350 grams = about 12.5 ounces
250 grams = about 8.8 ounces
100 grams = about 3.5 ounces
50 grams = about 1.75 ounces
25 grams = about 7/8 ounce

It should be easy to find a metric to pounds conversion chart on the web somewhere. Use http://www.google.com to find the chart.
Good luck,
Mike
