Knitting Needle Conversion Chart: Old to New

Knitting Needle Conversion Chart Old to New
Knitting Needle Conversion Chart Old to New

Knitting needle sizes have not always been the same, which means you may need a Knitting Needle Conversion Chart: Old to New to figure out where your needles fit in! This is especially true if you have a very old pattern or needles you inherited from your grandmother.  Because most patterns call for a specific needle size, you need to know the size of your needles so your patterns turn out right. This chart includes metric sizes, new U.S. sizes, and old U.S. sizes, so you can easily compare your needles to the other sizing systems.
