Square needles

On July 23, 2012, in TNNA, by Anna

One of the really nifty things with TNNA is that we get to see and try new products.  Ok, I realize square needles aren’t band new on the market, but they are new to me.  So I was very excited to find that I had a brand new set of Knitter’s Pride cubics in my gift bag from Marly’s Designer Dinner. And they just happened to be size 3.75 mm (US 5), which is one of my go-to sizes for lace.

They are very nice to work with, the join is smooth and the cable nice and flexible, and a good point, suitable for lace.  I like them a lot. Although honestly I can’t say that they are particularly different to work with compared to round needles. Perhaps if I were in the habit of gripping my needles very hard, it might be easier on my fingers, but I’m not.  Still, very nice needles – lovely to work with.  I’m glad I got the chance to try them.
