Remarkable strength, resistance and durability of steel needles
Stainless steel needles are renowned for their superior strength. Unlike Plastic or Bamboo (or Wood) needles, Steel guarantees greater durability and does not deform easily. Stainless steel needles are particularly suitable for working with stronger wires or fine nylon cables, offering perfect stability and great reliability.
Exceptional precision and glide with the Steel needle
Steel allows the stitches to glide smoothly over the needle tip, even with particularly fine yarns such as those used in babywear. Whether you’re working with delicate or thicker yarns, Steel needles offer optimum control, enabling you to knit fine, precise pieces. These needles are also ideal for projects requiring finesse, such as hats, jumpers or even complex scarves.
Steel needles vs plastic needles
Compared with plastic needles, steel needles have the advantage of better glide, particularly with high-quality fine yarns. Plastic can sometimes be too soft and slippery, making it difficult to work on complex knitting projects. Steel needles, on the other hand, offer a smooth, rigid surface for precise stitch control.
Steel needles vs Bamboo needles
Bamboo needles may offer a softer grip, but they are not as durable as steel needles for long-term use. If you’re a keen knitter who regularly works on large projects, stainless steel needles are more durable and offer better glide, even under greater pressure. They allow you to work with Cotton, Wool, Mohair and Alpaca yarns with ease and comfort.
Steel circular needles are perfect for complex knitting projects requiring large quantities of yarn and a flexible, variable cable length. These circular needles are often offered with Nylon or Plastic cables, guaranteeing maximum flexibility while avoiding the twists or knots that can occur with less flexible cables. Interchangeable circular needle tips in metal, stainless steel or aluminium are particularly comfortable to work with. Our circular needles in Steel and other materials are available on our online sales website in several sizes and diameters to best suit your projects. For example, if you’re knitting with a fine wool, you’ll opt for a small needle diameter, and if you’re working with a coarse wool, you’ll want to choose a larger needle diameter.
Stainless steel needles are ideal for knitting enthusiasts looking for strength and precision in their work. The ability of steel needles to work with both thin and thick yarns, while offering a smooth glide, makes them the essential tool for demanding projects. What’s more, these needles are available in a range of sizes, lengths and diameters to suit different types of knitting, including wool, cotton, nylon, mohair and alpaca. In short, Steel knitting needles are the ideal choice for demanding knitting or embroidery projects, offering superior performance, longevity and a smooth glide.
