    Product Description

    Use this text to share information about your product.

    We love Lykke needles because of their smooth finish and join. The point is not too sharp and works well with any yarn, we especially like it with chainette yarns or other yarns you are trying to avoid splitting. All Lykke needles are hand crafted from birch wood in Nepal.

    Haven’t used these yet but basing my review on being a Lykke needle user

    I have several Lykke small circulars as well as both the 3” and 5or 6 inch tip interchangeable Lykke sets. I love how much easier wood needles are on my hands when knitting…except for sticky yarns and then I have to switch to my metal Chiaogoo needles. I’m about to start a two color brioche class to learn brioche knitting and the yarn is superwash Merino (perfect wood needle yarn) and the two patterns call for 9” circs plus a larger circ (I have the larger in my Lykke sets) and double pointed needles. I don’t have any Lykke DPNs so I ordered the 9” circ and the DPNs in the “supposed” size will need. Let’s hope I get gauge on them or I’ll be buying one more size up or down, right?

    I’m giving 5 stars ahead of time then, because I love all my other Lykke’s and I use them for everything but my Shetland wool yarns. I highly recommend the sets. You can get extra cords in any length to use with them. I have the two sets because I often have more than one project going needing the same size needle although I’ve also bought extra tips in my most used sizes. I tend to gravitate to the 3” tips most often.

    Great needles!

    I’m brand new to knitting, so my wonderful Apricot helper handed me these when I told her what I wanted to make, and so far so good! They have a wonderful slide and grip, which I hear is what wood is great for. Easy to hold and work with. Once I got going, it’s a bit annoying that they’re attached, but I’m sure there’s a good reason this novice knitter just isn’t aware of yet, and I look forward to solving the mystery. Thank you Apricot team for helping me choose them!!
