About Yarns: coming soon


About Needles and Hooks:  Needles and Hooks come in a range of sizes and materials. Sizes are measured in millimeters, and labeled with a code. There are two systems of codes: one from the United States, and one from the United Kingdom. At Livyah Yarn, we are dedicated to “translating” knitting and crochet across countries and cultures, and have developed this chart so you can see sizes and codes in one place.
