Review on ๐Ÿงถ FlexiFlips DPN Knitting Needles (4.5mm / US 7) by addi by Nancy Murphy

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Buy two sets at Knitting Needles

I ran into the gusset in my sock construction and they completely failed in my book. I had to switch everything to my regular US1 Addi Turbo Rocket circular needles. I liked the feel of the FlexiFlips but needed another pin to complete my project. I think 3 larger needles are enough for hats and the like, but for socks, mittens or gloves you need at least one more needle. Also, pay attention to where you start each row. It's nice to be able to use two different tips, but I found that the blunter end opened up the stitch too much and made the work uneven. I'm sure I will enjoy using these needles often once my next set arrives.

Pros
  • Extremely versatile, FlexiFlips also make excellent cable needles.
Cons
  • Repair
