Hi,
Has any one of you came accross sock knitting needles size 1,5 mm in a shop? I have a table cloth pattern  to knit with 1,5 mm needles and have been looking for them in online shops and selling platforms in different countries, no success though.
Before I start to knit with the needles # 2,0 mm I wanted to ask if by any chance you know a place where the  needles less than 2.0 mm are for sale?
Thanks for any tip!

What kind of needles do you want? Circulars, interchangeable?
Where do you want to but them? Europe ...

The needles I wanted were circulars and the classical ones (4 short needles), also I needed different length of circulars.
Thanks to very valuable tips where to find and what needles you use I browsed internet searching for the producers instead of the needle size. It took a while to see what is available in ”e-valley of dealers and shops” with knitting accessories. At the end I landed in Amazon - the offer there was the widest and most cost effective. I bought 6 pair of addi needles (1,25; 1,5; 1,75 mm). It looks that they completed my order in different shops in different countries (all the items were on stock) as my order is divided into two parcels which will come on different dates and without additional shipping cost.
Thanks again for sharing info about the shops – I discovered a lot of types and colors of yarns! Wish I had more time (and money ;)) to satisfy my knitting appetite. Life is much more colorful now!
I am from Poland, so the easest for me is to buy in Europe, but I am open to good deals from other markets too.

Its very hard to help you with so little details! :P
I like a site that is called woolstack (UK) they have everything! (Very affordable shipping worldwide, the cost of a letter).
www . woolstack . co . uk / addi-fixed-circular-knitting-needles-with-silver-tips -> 1.5mm circulars (fixed).
They have many other options in that size, different brands, interchangeable....

HiyaHiya has steel circular knitting needles from thickness 0.7 mm upwards in its range. Cable length from 40 cm - 150 cm. Next to ChiaoGoo, my best knitting needle dealer.
