| Best for | Checking which U.S. alias the current Craft Yarn Council table gives a known metric package size before confirming project gauge | Building and releasing a tech pack without silent defaults, duplicate sources, or ambiguous final files |
| Know before using | The reference is not a dimensional measurement, manufacturer inspection, UK or Canadian conversion, steel-hook chart, tool recommendation, yarn assignment, gauge result, or proof that a proposed tool will produce the required fabric. | The record does not create product specifications, prove fit or manufacturability, select materials or construction settings, establish legal compliance, reproduce licensed standards, or replace qualified technical, production, quality, testing, sourcing, logistics, safety, compliance, and legal review. |

| What the source establishes | The lookup reproduces the current public Craft Yarn Council metric and U.S. alias rows and follows the Council's warning that company letter and number labels vary; blank aliases remain blank instead of being inferred. | The guide cites current ISO documented-information, garment-measurement, stitch, and seam sources plus current U.S. FTC textile and care-labeling guidance; its working record makes organization-specific requirements, suppliers, evidence, issues, and approvals explicit. |
