Works on all hooks and needles

This is the best for me. I have ergonomic hooks and some of the types are worn out or I find it difficult to read. This allows you to measure without slipping, which is impossible with ergonomic hooks. This also works with knitting needles. I use a stamp the size of a metal pin and the imprint is not easy to read. I use this to make sure I'm the right size.

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Older model

Finally a scale for knitters!

Regular gauges are fine when testing Susan Bates hooks, but try putting Boye/Clover hooks in one of them. Not really. you can break it I was afraid the gauges on my hooks would wear out over the years so I bought this to be on the safe side. To be honest the photos don't do it justice. It's really thick and very durable so I'm not worried it will break. I wish it wasn't pink, but I don't care as long as the tool is running. All the hooks I tested were 100% accurate so I can say they work as…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Quick Start Guide

Great for crochet hooks with thick handles

I prefer this type of hook and needle gauge because you can still measure the accuracy of crochet hooks with thick and ergonomic handles with open slots on the edges that you can't measure with sensors be that only have holes. I really wish there was a slot to check the thickness of the 7.0mm, 4.25mm and 5.25mm hooks (which is why I put 4 stars instead of 5 - would have been 4 1/ 2 stars if that was an option) but I guess not many people use these hooks or they would be there too. Some gauges…

  • Weight
Cons
  • Some small things
