Knitting Needles

Knitting Needles

Straight knitting needles, which come in aluminum, plastic or wood, are the most commonly used. They come in varying sizes, from 0 (2 mm), the smallest, to size 15 (10 mm) and larger, they are sold in pairs, and come in 10" or 14" lengths. There is a point at one end of the needle, and a knob at the other, which prevents stitches from slipping off.
