1 | Hi, I need some very fine knitting needles, either DP or straight pins (not circular). Does anyone know of 1.5mm needles being sold in New Zealand? Or other suggestions for some straight pins of some sort in this size? Thanks catsmeat1 - 2020-10-02 13:46:00 |
2 | You could buy some stainless steel rod at 1.5mm from a hardware place or hobby shop and cut it to length androth2 - 2020-10-02 16:25:00 |

7 | I'd love to know what you are going to knit with them? Didn't even know they were made that small. Edited by jan2242 at 11:00 am, Sat 3 Oct jan2242 - 2020-10-03 10:58:00 |
8 | H Jan, not actually for knitting. For rolling paper for crafts. catsmeat1 - 2020-10-03 12:39:00 |
9 | Sounds a great idea jan2242 - 2020-10-04 10:14:00 |

11 | Bicycle spokes? Might be too small, probably only only 1mm dia, but they are stiff (to resist bends and kinks) and rustproof. graciousgraphic - 2020-11-08 15:59:00 |
12 | Try a charity op shop My local hospice shop has a bucket full of knitting needles, held behind the counter You have to ask for them janeny1 - 2020-12-02 08:37:00 |
