This set pairs Knit Picks' Sunstruck wood interchangeable needles with a custom Maker's Needle Case, made for Knit Picks from the same durable materials as della Q's Maker's Canvas line.
Sunstruck tips are wood, with the grip and quiet feel that brings. Wood holds stitches a little more firmly than metal, which helps with slippery yarns like silk and bamboo. The canvas case keeps it all organized and protected, and it's sturdy enough to travel.
It's for knitters who prefer wood needles and want them in a case that will last, and it makes a handsome gift.
Good for
- Knitters who prefer wood needles
- Slippery yarns that need some grip
- Travel knitting with a full set
- A gift that's practical and good-looking
Using it
Wood tips knit a touch differently from metal, so swatch on the tip you'll use. Our gauge guide explains why. Tighten each tip onto its cord securely and check it on long projects. Smaller wood tips are more delicate than metal, so don't force tight stitches or sit on your work.
Looking after it
Wipe wood tips with a soft cloth and keep them dry. If a tip ever feels rough, buff it gently with a brown paper bag. Spot-clean the canvas case with a damp cloth and cold water rather than washing it.
