Knitting Needles UK Size to Metric Size Conversion Chart

Bamboo Circular Knitting needles

Knitters may have noticed that different companies have different measuring standard for the needles and crochet needles. It has caused many troubles during our purchasing process. Though 8Seasons have supplied Knitting needles and knitting & crocheting accessories to US, UK and a lot of European countries for years, we didn’t realize the huge difference among UK size and US size.

And I’m totally at sea with the old UK needle sizes. Currently on 8seasons Knitting and Crocheting Categories, we only describe our needles in UK Size and Metric Size, thanks god, we haven’t make huge mistakes in transferring UK Size to Metric Size.

Ravelry is such a nice platform. We can learn a lot about Knitting and crocheting here.

Currently, we offer a series of Bamboo Circular Knitting Needles, but the size is not full. At the present, our Circular Knitting needles range from 14-000 in UK size.
