These white knitting needles are made from high-performance synthetic material and are light and flexible and sit comfortably in the hand. The drop-shaped points make the single-pointed knitted needles ideal for beginners, since the yarn slides so easily over the points and makes picking up the yarn extremely easy. The shaft of the needle is rounded at the front and changes to a triangular cross-section - this allows the stitches to glide freely and easily. The click heads are brilliantly designed to keep two needles together as a pair on one hand and on the other they serve as stitch stoppers. The needle gauges are printed centrally on the needles.
