We consider the needles and hooks we use just as important as the yarn. Finding the right one for you can take some trial and error. We believe we carry some of the best choices for all fiber choices.
Wood needles and hook lend a bit more grip. This helps the beginner just learning. The grip of wood can also be good for working with plant based fibers such as hemp, linen and cotton.
Steel needles are smooth and create less resistance when working with animal fiber yarns and when speed is more important.
These are in fun colors so there’s always one that will contrast nicely with the yarn for good visibility. They can be used on the needle or as a row marker since they can be opened and removed. If they turn on the needle the skinny end can get a little stuck on larger size needles, but just turn it back and you’re good to go. They slip easily on both metal and bamboo needles. If you have dexterity issues, they might be a little fiddly to open and close because they are small, so play with some before you buy if possible.
