This chart lists the mostcommon metric equivalents for U.S.,'Old U.S.' and 'Old U.K' needle sizes. Different needlemanufacturers may vary from the exact sizes shown; however, ranges ofcontemporaryU.S. needles are generally as shown in the 'Contemporary U.K./U.S.Metric Range' column.

'Old U.S.' sizes are frequentlyseen in old yarncompany leaflets; since the sizes run opposite of contemporary sizing(underthe 'Old U.S.' system, the finest needles have the highest sizenumbers) the giveaway is a sock pattern (or other pattern usingfingering-weightyarn) that calls for size 13 needles! Note that the metric measurementsof U.K.sizes differ, so it may be important to know the source of yourpattern.
Source for the 'Old U.S.'column is a needle gaugefrom Boye Needle Company that is reproduced in CompleteGuide to ModernKnitting and Crocheting by AliceCarroll, published 1942 by Wise &Co. Source for all other information below is 'My Valuable Yarn Guide'(no author or publisher info appears on this publication).
