Know before usingThe brief does not approve a base pattern, size system, grade rule, pattern, file, provider, contract, classification, fee, fit, sample plan, production use, or intellectual-property position, and it does not replace qualified pattern, fit, CAD, employment, tax, privacy, and legal review.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.

Source and review
What the source establishesThe source-reviewed brief cites current U.S. Department of Labor task and title evidence, ISO documented-information, size-designation, body-table, and garment-measurement sources, first-party CAD exchange guidance, and one professional discovery route; it requires controlled inputs, explicit authority, receiver-tested files, sewn evidence, and acceptance records.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.
