This table is “current sizes” based on information provided at the manufacturer web sites and (added September 2007) for the corresponding US Knitting Needles, as shown at the yarnstandards.com resource website
You are welcome to link to this page or create your own.
Speaking of size, If Size Matters for your finished project, be sure to make a gauge swatch (I recommend TWO, one for reference and one to wash and dry as the project will be)
Shameless self promotion – my online store, ItsAllJustString.com offers all Crochet hooks offered by either Clover or Pony.
If you find any errors, be sure to let me know.

Once again,
* Based on Data Current as of February 2007.
* ALWAYS MAKE A GAUGE SWATCH
* ALWAYS check/measure the diameter of your hook
- Older Hooks often do NOT have the same Diameter as those made today.
-
* If you find an error, please do comment or email with the correction.

My Thanks to Kim Guzman for catching the misaligned colums – and proving yet again, one should never edit one’s own work
