| Best for | Finding the current CYC hook and needle aliases that share one known nominal metric diameter before confirming project gauge | Planning the current CPSC certificate-data handoff for regulated imports with the importer, finished-product certifier, customs broker, and entry records | Checking a named facility's current WRAP certification or discovering listed production units |
| 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. | The portal does not decide whether a product requires certification, identify the correct rules or certificate data, classify an entry, replace the current 16 CFR part 1110 text, or reconcile a filing to an actual shipment. Effective dates and workflows differ by entry route; use current CPSC, CBP, customs, product-safety, and legal review. | A listed facility and its certification status do not establish product quality, capacity, availability, upstream coverage, whole-chain performance, buyer fit, or the scope and result of a particular order. Confirm the exact legal entity and production unit, current certificate and scope, product and process capability, capacity, monitoring evidence, corrective actions, references, and commercial 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. | CPSC operates the eFiling portal with role-specific importer, broker, applicability, Product Registry, regulated-product, laboratory, ACE, FAQ, video, and document-library routes. The certificate final rule took effect July 8, 2026 for covered non-FTZ products, with separate timing for covered FTZ entries. | WRAP states that thousands of WRAP-certified facilities operate worldwide and that buyers can use the public route to verify a named factory's certification or find certified manufacturers for apparel, footwear, sewn and leather goods, textiles, and related products. The page exposes certified facilities and monitoring firms as separate routes. |
