8" Double Point Knitting Needles, Bamboo

I’ve been using these for a pair of socks and the flexible bamboo really helps my hands relax after a long day. The points are smooth enough to pick up stitches without splitting the yarn.

The bamboo is noticeably lighter than my old metal needles, making it so much easier to knit socks without my hands getting tired. The tips are smooth too, so the stitches glide nicely without splitting the yarn.

My hands cramp up easily with metal needles, but these bamboo ones are so light and warm to the touch that I can knit socks for hours without any stiffness. The flexibility really does make a difference when you're working in the round.
