Dear All
This has been a great and timely thread.
I'm just about to embark on
Vivienne's table cloth pattern and one of the options for joining the pieces
is to crochet them together.
What size crochet hook would you suggest for
Finca 20?

There used to be
TWO sets of sizes for British crochet hooks.
The bigger ones for use with
knitting yarns were the same as the old British knitting needle sizes,  The
steel hooks for use with finer crochet cottons had a different set of sizes
although the two sets of numbering did overlap a bit.  see:

Thank you all. Many of the conversion charts didn't have imperial only  
metric But Sue and another lady, I think Jean found two that did. But I had  
already gone out and bought 6 new ones :-(   Still I was surprised how  cheap 
they 
were. You are a great bunch of ladies. Nothing seems to much trouble  for you 
all. Best wishes, Vivienne
