Review on ๐Ÿงถ HiyaHiya Flyers US 1.5/2.5mm: Flexible Double-Pointed Knitting Needles by Karla Richter

Revainrating 5 out of 5

These puppies really do their job!

I've been watching these needles for a few years now. I used to knit socks on the DP happily and easily a few years ago, but now my hands are 80 years old and they are stiffer than before. I looked at the magic loop and decided that the fiddle factor hadn't gone away after the fourth row of the cuff. Two circular cords dangled in different directions, and 9-inch round cords didn't help stiff fingers. My Hiya Hiya Flyers arrived late last night. I applied it early in the morning. After the third row, the unevenness has disappeared and I happily continue to fall. It is knitted with the third needle instead of the fourth or fifth. It is difficult to lose stitches at the end of slightly bent needles. Sharp ends make knitting easier. tight little stitches we use to make good sock fabric. I think I'll go out in the sun and dance with happiness. Good tools make every job easier. Treat yourself, you deserve it. I liked both of my sizes so much that I bought the 1.5" in bamboo. Pink mentioned that they aren't as sharp. They are NOT as sharp and after a while they are just as fast as the metal ones. If you use bamboo you have to break it. Oil on your hands and in the wool smears them and the class 000000 abrasive paste fanned out with wool sliding over it completes the job. I always like wool yarn on bamboo. That gives me the opportunity to look into the world of my ancestors - knitting from natural materials.
