Needle Conversion Chart

When I was reading through patterns they either use US or Metric when making reference to the size of needle required for the project.  I began getting frustrated when my needles only had either the US size or the Metric size and I would have to try and figure out what size of needle I had to see if i could do my project.  Then my life became easier when I found this handy needle conversion chart.  I would simply just look up what needle size I had if the pattern was asking for the metric sizing, or vice versa. Below is the conversion chart that saved me time.  Enjoy!
