craftyhunnypie Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 As a knitter, I'd really like to treat myself to a beautiful pair of 4mm / 5mm knitting needles. Not you average grey, dull ones - no I want these to be special & ones that I'll really like to knit with. Maybe some with a bit of colour - some that people will go oooo look at those! A little bit of luxury for a hobby I love. So where online can I find such an unusual pair of knitting needles? Please help. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couperwife Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I love needles, you can get some lovely ones too ive looked at Get Knitted wooden ones these are quite short, but fab colours we really should go to laughing hens but you cant see the pictures i wonder if they are updating the site at the moment hope this was helpful - enjoy your hunt cathy x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachelk Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 What a conincidence! I was just checking the Get Knitted website for you, as thats where I got mine from, and got beaten to it! I was given a set of the KnitPro Symfonie needles several years ago,and they are the best! (But snap if you happen to sit on one!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Webmuppet Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I have lovely dark wood knitting needles, my Dad and Step Mum bought me a set for Christmas a few years ago - all the sizes from tiny 2.75mm through to whopping great 6.5mm. They are a real treat to knit with. I think they came from John Lewis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted April 14, 2011 Author Share Posted April 14, 2011 Thanks. Have ordered some symfonie funky coloured ones & also some with polkadot bobbles on the end that are oak. I have stumbled across some light up ones too & crochet hooks - but can't find them for sale in the U.K. Anyone? Would like 4mm needles & crochet hook.

ubereglu Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 I've got some glittery ones! I don't know where they were from though, as they were a present. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted April 17, 2011 Author Share Posted April 17, 2011 My polkadot bobble ones have arrived. They are very kitsch & lovely to knit with - as made from oak. They are Art Viva ones. I'm very pleased. Only a crafter / knitter could get ecstatic over two sticks of wood! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
