| Best for | Learning or comparing knit structures | Finding the current CYC hook and needle aliases that share one known nominal metric diameter before confirming project gauge |
| Know before using | A foundational library, not yet an exhaustive stitch encyclopedia. | 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. |

| What the source establishes | The linked tool or guide is maintained inside Stitch Authority and was checked against its current public interface. | 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. |
