These DPN’s were fantastic!
I am new to knitting and never used this technique. I am making wool beanies for Christmas presents from Nancy Bates patterns. Thanks to the internet, I was able to figure out how to use these needles to finish off the top of the hat. Also I asked a question about an area in the patternI didn’t understand and your sales person was able to give me a quick clear answer. Thankyou…:)
I broke my long 8” needles so I went with these. I like the wood feel in my hands and they are long enough to help manipulate my knitting work. The best part is the size is in the middle of the needle. Easy to read and keep track of your needle sets especially when you have to change sizes while knitting in pattern.
My preference for DPN's is wood. I was hesitant to try Lykke for DPN's because I could see via online photos, a metal piece in the middle of each needle. I also like my needles a little longer. Given I am happy with my other Lykkes though, I gave them a try. I finished one pair of socks on the new Lykke DPN's, and am beginning a new pair-----no problem whatsoever with the join or the length. In fact, I like them a lot because they are very lightweight and they are just slick enough.
My first visit to this yarn heaven. I am an out of towner and was thrilled with this shop. The help was very warm and welcoming. So helpful in with my selection and getting ordered and mailed to me in ohio. I will definitely be visiting again on my next trip. Thank you! Gerry
My old standard. Light and the tip has gentle tip to help press hook through loops.
So soft and light!
I enjoyed working with this Malabrigo yarn. I crocheted a beanie as requested by my granddaughter. I normally knit but this was a special request. The cap turned out beautiful, comfy and feels wonderful.
I’m using this yarn for the American afghan pattern. It’s perfect for this project.
