Why would you knit with a square needle? Lots of reasons! The square shaft of the Kollage Square Needles is easy to grip - making knitting easier on your hands. Customers with arthritis, carpal tunnel, and other hand or wrist issues comment that Square Needles allow them to enjoy knitting again as there is no pain when they use them. An added bonus: most knitters find their knitting is more even when using the Square Needles.
The needles are available in double point (three lengths: 5", 6", and 7"), single point, and circular (5 lengths: 9", 16", 24", 32", and 40"). The original circular needles feature the soft "K" cable - so flexible you can magic loop with a 16" circular! The new Firm cable is now also available - and is more like a traditional circular needle cable, except it doesn't kink, curl, or require hot water to relax it to a usable state!
[NOTE: 9" circulars, Firm 16", 32", and 40" will be available end of November 2010! You can pre-order and we'll ship them to you as soon as they arrive!]
