Corner View: Wood.


My wooden needles... I don't have many of them but the ones I own, I love. Few years ago when I started knitting, I used to always buy metal needles: they were a bit cheaper and I simply didn't know the difference. But after some time I found out that knitting with wooden needles is more pleasurable and gives better results (in my case at least).

Happy Corner View Wednesday!

  1. You have some beautiful needles! I have a large stash of inherited metal needles, but I never use them. I'm a big fan of wooden and bamboo needles too. They feel so much more comfortable in your hands than metal.

  2. Beside the fact wood is a beautiful material, the click-clicking of the needles must sound different too. Lower tones, more soothing ... :^)

  9. Oh, they are beautiful, even without knitting anything! It's obvious why knitting is more fun with these! ;o)

  10. Those are the nicest knitting needles I've seen! If the ones I owned looked like that, I'd be a wooden needle girl, too.
