The unique L shape makes this the perfect needle for sock and sleeve knitting.
Each pack contains 3 double pointed needles with a unique bent shape. Each needle is about 20cm long and comes in three sizes, 2.5mm, 3mm and 3.5mm.
Each size is a different colour and they are made of plastic.
Afraid I didn’t like them at all - felt cheap and really lightweight and just not comfortable to work with. If I am tempted to try 3, rather than 4 DPNs again, I think I will go for the metal Addi ones, which are more expensive but are flexible in the middle which I reckon must make them easier to use.
I thought these looked like a really good idea, but I found them uncomfortable to use as the ends of the needles need to be either tucked up or down to use efficiently. They are supposed to speed up your knitting but I was definitely slower. I also found the plastic bent easily, so I'm not sure how long they would last.
Recently used to finish a long awaited pair of socks. These were great, especially with fewer stitches on the needles. I am not fond of DPNs per se, but this set was ideal for me! These could convert me to being a sockaholic...
