Knitting Needle Size Chart

Some quick tips for using our Knitting Needle Size Chart:

  • Tip #1: when in doubt, revert to the Metric sizing system.
  • Tip #2: the yarn weight recommendations for each needle size may not work for you. If your knitting is significantly tighter or looser than average, you may need to change your needle size accordingly.
