Karatstix

Knitter's Ruler & Needle Gauge


Handmade from bamboo, this is every knitter's best friend. It is a handy ruler with which to measure a standard swatch (4-inch/10-cm square). Measure your swatch in inches on one side and centimeters on the opposite side. When not using it as a ruler, it can be used to determine the size of any knitting needle from US 8-0/.5 mm up to US 35/19 mm.

The gauge was handmade by Karatstix using a laser engraving and cutting machine. It is then sanded and embellished with colored pencils. Finally, it is coated with a satin polyurethane finish and polished to a silky feel. Cared for properly, it will last a lifetime.
