Square needles
Hi Jan,
When I went to the link, it said "your browser cannot display inline frames" and there was no article on square needles - could you post a copy of it here. Thanks David On Tue, 22 Aug 2006, Midwest poster wrote: See http://kollageyarns.com/needles.php for an interesting description. Has anyone ever tried them? |

Square needles
They are called Forest Palm Square Needles. This is what Kollage Yarns
says: We now have our Square Knitting Needles in six sizes: 8, 9, 10, 11, 13 and 15. All needle sizes are 11" in length. These square needles are designed to fit perfectly in your hands. They enable you to knit faster with more uniform stitches. At our last show, we had several pairs of square needles out with yarn for people to try. One sample was knit on by over 30 different people, but the stitches were all the same. These will be perfect with those slippery yarns; no more dropping stitches. We believe, and have been told by many, the square needles are easier to use by those who have arthritis, carpal tunnel, or stiffness in their hands and fingers. You've got to try them! -- Jan in MN "David R. Sky" wrote in message . bc.ca...
