Hi! Was just working on my latest modelstitching job (re-knitting sweater
on # 13 needles)
and got to wondering why needles jump from #11 to #13..Anyone got ideas?

There's no 14s or 16s either. I think it has to do more with the metric
sizes... 11s are 8mm, 13s are 9mm, 15s are 10mm. So there's a nice even
1mm between them. But then 17s jump to 12.5mm, though I've seen some
that are 12mm. No 11mm either.
