Bucilla Nubby Knit

This image and description come from CorkSpork on Etsy.com:
2 skiens Vintage Bucilla boilproof Nubby-Knit yarn, ash blue color, 225 yards each for a total of 450 yards, appears to be unused, really unique knubby yarn, I believe it is made of cotton. (Only one pictured but both are matching)

Boilproof! Right on the label, this yarn is promoted as boilproof!

Now that's truly extinct yarn!

Thanks, CorkSpork, for your permission!

The Nubby Knit yarn came out in 1935. I'm looking at this yarn for some vintage patterns and was wondering (should you still have the yarn), make a guess as to the weight or ply of the yarn. I'd like to identify a potential substitute.
