Description

I personally prefer interchangeables such as these KNIT PRO interchangeables as they offer so much more flexibility and are easier to store than buying each size of needles in several cable lengths! (this set on the right below is good for helping you decide whether you prefer wood or metal too) Top prize goes to one of my customers who turned a wine box on it’s side and uses the bottle compartments to separate her different sized needles! Another way to knit smaller projects in the round is with double-pointed needles, also known as DPNs. These shorter straight needles have points at both ends and usually come in sets of four to six needles.

Metal needles may move more smoothly for fast knitters, but softer materials such as bamboo or wood are generally recommended as they have slightly less resistance when clashed together and can be easier on the joints.

Customer reviews

No matter what type of knitting needle you use, the points of the needles can make a big difference. Sharp points make it easier to accurately work with the stitches, especially on fine yarn. Needles with a more rounded point are good for bulky yarn and safer for kids. Want the best yarn for baby blankets? Discover the contenders with my guide. Extra Long Circular Needles addi Turbo Circulars – 40.” Some yarn feels better on needles made from certain materials. If you find that your stitches are sliding off the needles too easily or that they aren't sliding along the needles enough, try another set with a different finish.

When knitting in the round, have the right length in a circular needle is important. A needle length too long means the end stitch and the beginning stitch can’t be joined without over stretching the stitches. Refer to the pattern you’re using. What Are The Longest Knitter Needles? Circular needles come in both fixed lengths and with interchangeable cables so you can always find something to suit the project you have planned. Straight needles range from 9 to 14 inches long for most sizes, but you may find shorter or longer needles too.Some, like cotton, linen and silk are more slippery and can fall off the needle easily. You may prefer to use wooden and bamboo needles with these. Don’t think you have to keep them for special occasions though….. oh no.…. circular needles are the go to for me, it’s so easy to work a flat project then swap your needles over just as you would with straight needles and when your ready for a coffee break those stitches are MUCH less likely to slide off if they’re sitting pretty on the cable ;o)
