Bea I bought some yarn manufactured by a German company. For
Bea needle size it shows 2,5 3,5. I'm not familiar with needle
Bea sizes using commas.

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.
