| Best for | Finding the current CYC hook and needle aliases that share one known nominal metric diameter before confirming project gauge | Technical and specialty textiles |
| Know before using | A shared nominal diameter does not make a knitting needle and crochet hook interchangeable or predict equal gauge or fabric. The reference is not a physical measurement, manufacturer inspection, UK or Canadian conversion, steel-hook chart, tool recommendation, yarn assignment, or project approval. | ATA's completeness language is an operator claim. Buyer-guide or member-directory inclusion does not establish a complete market map, current production capability, capacity, ownership, certification, product suitability, commercial terms, or project fit. Verify the actual company, site, product, documents, samples, and terms directly. |

| What the source establishes | Rechecked July 28, 2026. The lookup reproduces the current public Craft Yarn Council metric and U.S. alias rows, aligns hooks and needles only when their nominal millimetre value matches, and leaves missing rows or aliases unfilled. | ATA's current sourcing page links buyer's guides covering suppliers and products, a searchable member directory, and other association sourcing tools for the advanced and specialty-textile supply chain. ATA's own directory overview describes company listings and product showcases as ways for fabricators to find products and potential partners. |
