Thoughtfully designed with durability, flexibility, and comfort in mind, these yarn needles are perfect for finishing off knitting and crochet projects with precision and ease.
Key Features:
-
Durable Aluminium Construction
Made from lightweight yet sturdy aluminium, these needles offer smooth gliding through all types of yarn, ensuring ease of use and long-lasting performance. -
Flexible Monofilament Eyelets
Each needle is equipped with a flexible monofilament loop eye, making it incredibly easy to thread thicker or more textured yarns. The soft loop reduces the risk of splitting fibres and helps maintain the integrity of your stitches. -

Gentle on Yarn
The smooth finish and rounded tips prevent snagging or fraying, allowing you to work confidently with delicate or specialty yarns. -
