ABSTRACT:
A craft needle having a measuring scale permanently applied along the longitudinal surface is disclosed. The zero point of the measuring scale is the distal end of the craft needle. The proximal end of the needle being the pointed end of a knitting needle and the hooked end of a crochet needle. Both knitting needles and crochet needles can be made with this feature. The length of a knitted work-piece can be measured by holding the distal end of the free needle vertically so the distal end is against the needle holding the work-piece and reading the length from the scale on the free needle. The width of a knitted work-piece and the dimensions of a crocheted work-piece can be measured by placing the distal end of the needle at one edge of the work-piece with the needle being parallel to the dimension being measured and reading the measurement from the scale on the needle. More than one measuring scale can be applied to a single needle with the zero points on all scales being at the distal ends of the needles.
