InTatters - Crochet Chat http://www.intatters.com/ General crochet discussion for all those who are hooked en Sat, 18 May 2013 14:33:04 GMT vBulletin 60 http://www.intatters.com/images/misc/rss.png InTatters - Crochet Chat http://www.intatters.com/ About hooks http://www.intatters.com/showthread.php?10356-About-hooks&goto=newpost Fri, 17 May 2013 20:07:19 GMT I'm wondering, when you are looking for a particular crochet hook do you refer to them mainly via the mm size or by the letters (US), numbers (US) or numbers (UK)???

Given that hooks exist in sizes between the letters and numbers, which system makes the most sense to you? If only the metric system was given in patterns would this be a problem for you??


Metric US system US numerical UK system
2.00mm - - 14
2.25mm B 1 13
2.50mm - - 12
2.75mm C 2 -
3.00mm - - 11
3.25mm D 3 10
3.50mm E 4 9
3.75mm F 5 -
4.00mm G 6 8
4.50mm - 7 7
5.00mm H 8 6
5.50mm I 9 5
6.00mm J 10 4
6.50mm K 10.5 3
7.00mm - - 2
8.00mm L 11 0
9.00mm M/N 13 00
