About this deal

Note: There are a needles made of natural materials as well. Most specifically bone and horn (like porcupine needles). As these are not readily available in western knitting shops, I am not going to discuss them here. The best Knitting needle size for beginners Although most knitting needles have a round needle shaft, several companies have designed needles with a square shaft to give you a slightly better grasp on the needle. Whether a square needle is best for you will depend on your personal preference, so I would recommend trying one out before taking the plunge and buying a whole set. Another great feature of laminated birch knitting needlesis that they’re very lightweight. They won’t weigh your hands down as you knit, making it easy to knit for long periods of time without getting tired.

A special sort of double-pointed needle is the cable needle, which can be used to temporarily hold stitches when knitting cable patterns. The ideal length of your knitting needles Straight: Traditional knitting needles are straight with a semi-pointy tip – though depending on the material you go for; some needles will be sharper than others. Straight needles are beginner-friendly and allow you to concentrate on your project stitch by stitch. Anyways, for knitting beginners, I recommend medium-sized needles. That means around 4-5 mm or US size 6 to 8.

Knit for several hours without hurting your hands - and at the same time get the perfect result

The Straight Needleshave their sizes etched into the wood on the ends of the needles. These markings are also filled with paint. You can easily read the sizes, but the paint can’t rub off since it’s inside the grooves of the etching. This variety ensures that you can find the perfect set of needles for any project you have in mind, whether you’re working on a small project or a large one. Interchangeable Circular Knitting Needles I have the FourSquare version of the short interchangeable needles. Although the round needles are not hard to grasp at all, the square shape does make it slightly easier to grasp the needles, especially the really short ones. Multicolored Layers of Wood We all have different hands and needs when it comes to the materials we feel comfortable working with. At the same time, the different yarn qualities also require knitting needles of different qualities to get the best results. We sell knitting needles of two of the best qualities - wood and metal. fairly recently I found “Pyrm” needles and they have a slightly bulbous end that realllly is helpful for not splitting the yarn or letting the stitch slip off the end – I looove them -they are white, which really helps when using dark colored yarns, they have a matte feel and are ergonomically shaped like triangles so your hands don’t cramp- the cables are made of some sort of magic and they don’t have a “memory” so they don’t hold the shape that they have been stored in etc .. anyway … they are super for beginners and advanced knitters as well.

You should also keep in mind that your knitting needle needs will change as you get more proficient. Experienced knitters will prefer fundamentally different needles than beginners. In fact, chances are high you will discard your beginner’s knitting needles after a month or two. Choosing whether a wooden or metal knitting needle is best for you will depend on your personal preference and budget. The most important thing is to choose a high-quality needle. When it comes to needles, wood is a classic choice. Nothing beats the feel of wood needles in your hand when you’re crafting for hours. All of our wood needles are made from lightweight laminated birch wood, giving you a smooth needle with a perfect rounded tip, for working with any and all fibers. Our wooden knitting needles consist of high quality birch wood. Birch wood is first of all a very strong material, which has made it possible to shape the tips as fine and sharp as possible. This makes it easier for you to get all the stitches when you knit. As an added bonus, knitting needles of birch are comfortable to knit with. They fit perfect in your hands and then they are almost silent. Last, but certainly not least, you need to decide on a type of needle. Knitting needles come in quite a lot of different shapes.Knitting has been in fashion since the 1980s boom. There is also a tendency today as a large part of the young people spend a lot of time alone or in partnership with others. This is why there are many reasons for it - first and foremost, it's popular because it's an easy and cheap way to change the wardrobe just when it suits you. All you need is delicious yarn, a good pattern and most importantly - a pair of good knitting needles for children and adults. Circular needles aren’t just for knitting in the round. You can knit flat pieces on a circular needle, which is great if you’re making large projects like blankets. When knitting flat, you must have room for all of the stitches to fit on the length of the needle, and for larger projects, this is not possible with straight needles. A long circular needle can easily fit all of your stitches onto the needle, even for large projects.

LYKKE- LYKKE is known for creating durable and beautiful needles in a range of stunning colours. Choose a single needle or treat yourself to a whole set!

I feel it’s important that beginners experience a feeling of success– otherwise you’ll get frustrated or bored very soon. And that’s not good, eh?
