Swatch Ruler & Needle Gauge, White

These are great tools. Sturdy enough to hold up in my bag. I use ergonomic hooks and the sizes have worn off on my most used ones. This tool helps identify the size quickly. It is now always in my hook bag. I have not used the swatch measurement as much but it is also sturdy.

Like all Clover products, this one is made with quality material and thoughtful design: thick plastic and easy to read markings. I primarily bought this for the gauge swatch ruler. I liked that it was a much more accurate 4"/10 cm square hole unlike my metal Susan Bates' one with only an L-shaped hole for measuring. And it's definitely better than using a tape measure! Then there is a second tool for measuring hooks and needles. For crocheters, the tool has notches that identify the size of hooks. This is helpful for those hooks that don't come with a permanent size engraved on them. The same problem is solved for knitting needles, especially circulars. The sizes are listed in US, Japanese, and mm terms. US knitting needle sizes listed are 0-15. Japanese are 0-15, but it's a different circumference from the US! So, all are also identified in millimeters. For crochet hooks, US sizes listed are B-N/P. Japanese are 2/0 through 10/0. Metric sizes are 2.0 through 10.0 mm. It was interesting to learn that Japan has some sizes that the US doesn't, and vice versa. So it's really handy that there is a metric equivalent for each despite the country of origin. My only concern is that, despite the tool being made of a heavier plastic, it's still breakable unlike my aluminum Susan Bates which I've had since the last century, so I'll have to be more careful with it. It's also bigger than the SB, so it will take up more room in my WIP bag. But since I only make a swatch before starting a project and won't need it until the next one, I'll be keeping it safe and separately from my everyday stitching tools. Hope this review helps you! Happy stitching!

My handy swatch ruler and gauge tool were disintegrating. I’ve been using them for over 50 years. They were cracked and the printing on them was barely visible. These tools from Clover are great. Easy to use and very sturdy.

This needle gauge is a very handy tool because some of my crochet and knitting needles don't have numbers on them. I tested it with needles that still have their numbers on them and they all fit into the accurate holes. I also like that it has a swatch ruler and shows mm and US size. It could be a little thicker but since I only use it for a couple of minutes during a project, it will be fine.

I love this set, it does it all.

Makes a nice gift for someone just starting to knit

I haven’t used it yet. It looks like it will be helpful for any knitting project.

I would buy from this vendor again, speedy shipping and product is what I expected.

Excellent for the price and arrived very quickly.

Clover products are a tad overpriced compared to other brands but always well designed for purpose and made from quality materials. Pliable, thin and bendy. Makes swatching precise with the needle gauge to help assess a better size if tension is wrong. Metric and Imperial ruler. US, metric, and Japanese needle/Hook gauging. Sadly no old UK needle gauging.

Praktischer Helfer um Nadelgrößen von Häkelnadeln und Stricknadeln zu bestimmen.

I had thought this product would have been more sold then it is. Have all needles measurement in US. & MM.

This all-in-one template contains all the various sizes for knitting/crochet needles/hooks; the gauge square, a must-have, is included for any project. I love using it. It conveniently fits into the pocket of my carry-all for knitting/crochet projects.
