NEW: We are very pleased to offer you the new Addi CraSyTrio (known as Addi FlexiFlips dpns in the US). The Addi CraSyTrio are a revolutionary new kind of double pointed needles that make it easier to work in the round.

KnitPro dpn sets contain 5 needles rather than just 4, which makes them even more versatile.  Made from highly polished natural wood, these look great, feel great and are wonderful to work with. The needles are 20cm long and come in a range of sizes from 2mm - 6mm. Highly recommended!
