Knitting needle size
I bought some yarn manufactured by a German company. For needle size
it shows 2,5 3,5. I'm not familiar with needle sizes using commas. I've checked several sites on the net and couldn't find an answer. Can anyone here help. Thanks |

Europeans often use commas where we would use periods. And their knitting needle sizes are measured in millimeters. The table I found http://knitting.about.com/od/toolsandsupplies/a/needlesize.htm says that 2.5 mm is between an American 1 and 2, and a 3.5 mm is an American 4. -- Laura ) (617) 661-8097 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139 http://www.laymusic.org/ http://www.serpentpublications.org |
