Mielke's
Fiber Arts, LLC Your Central Wisconsin source for weaving,
spinning, knitting, crocheting, tatting, bobbin lace, felting, dyeing, and
locker hooking equipment, books, and supplies.
Includes holes for sizes
1.5 mm to 19 mm - (US needle sizes 000 to 35/hook sizes B to S)
24 holes in total. There is no other gauge on the market that has this many
needle/hook sizes. Has both inch and cm rulers. Made
in the USA. Measures 3-5/16" x
5-1/4."
Why is Nancy's Knit Knacks gauge better than any other on the
market?
Its size fits into your hand properly and you can
manipulate the needles into and out of the holes more easily than with the
other gauges
It has more needle size holes than any other gauge - 24 in
total.
It is accurate. NKK machined each hole into the plastic
with a computerized cutting machine (CNC cutter). The others stamp theirs
out of metal or mold them in plastic. Both methods are inferior when
compared to CNC operations. Why does NKK use the more expensive method CNC?
Because it is more accurate.
It has the metric and US needles sizes as well as Crochet
Hook sizes.
NKK's gauge is made in the USA. Theirs are typically made
in China, India, and Germany.
NKK's gauge is legible. They use a special ink that prints
crisply and will not wear off.
NKK's unit will not break or bend.

NKK DP Needle Tube™ A solution for holding and
protecting your valuable and delicate Double Pointed Needles. Also works for crochet hooks and tatting needles!
Nancy's Knit Knacks solution consists of a
strong paper, telescopic tube with closed ends. Its diameter is wide
enough to hold 5 #10 US needles (or many more smaller needles or 2 to 4 larger
needles).
The Tubes can extend to hold 10" long
needles. It also shortens to a total length of 6-1/2". They have inside
diameters of 5/8" and outside diameters of approx. 3/4".
Once again, Nancy's Knit Knacks has been able
to analyze a "problem" affecting fiber artists and have been able to
develop a market leading solution.
Why are NKK DP Needle Tubes so great?
They are inexpensive, so you can easily afford to own one
or more packages of 4 tubes.
They protect needles better than any other solution
while maintaining a sleek form factor.
They are flexible and expand to hold the shortest needles
up to needles with lengths of 10". They do this while protecting both
the needle bodies and tips. Needles cannot be broken while inside our tubes.
Fabric holders cannot make that same claim nor can the "rubber band or
closure" systems.
They are attractive - in glossy Royal Blue and Yellow
colors.
The needle sizes can be written on the yellow cap (or tube
body) with a Sharpie brand marker.
They are made in the USA
They just plain work, and work well.
