SOHMO Retractable Tape Measure

$15.95

A tape measure that stays tidy. Retractable, compact, and at home in a knitting bag, sewing kit, or handbag.

The SOHMO Retractable Tape Measure solves the problem of tangled tape measures - press the concealed button on the side and the tape retracts cleanly into its case, ready for next time.

The case is round, 7cm in diameter, in a brown leather-look PU finish with SOHMO embossed on the front. A small tape measure that looks great, and is always handy tucked into a project bag, or hanging out at the bottom of a handbag - and it won't unspool itself every time it moves.

Particularly useful for knitters, where a retractable tape measure is far more practical than a standard tape measure. Measuring gauge swatches, checking length mid-project, confirming finished measurements - all things that happen repeatedly and in odd positions, often while yarn is still on the needles. A tape that retracts rather than tangles is one less thing to manage.

Equally useful for sewists who work away from a dedicated sewing room, anyone who keeps a compact kit in their bag for alterations and repairs, and garment makers who want a second tape measure that travels well.

The tape reads in both metric (cm) and imperial (inches) - 150cm / 60" total length.

  • Tape length: 150cm / 60"

  • Measurements: Double sided, metric and imperial

  • Case: Round, 7cm diameter, brown leather-look PU

  • Detail: SOHMO embossed on case front

  • Mechanism: Retractable, press concealed side button

  • Made in China
