Double Pointed Needles

Highlights

Reviews

Love, love, love, them! Nice, pointy tips and the shaft doesn't allow the stitches to slide off. I wish they came in 5 inch length.

Love them, Only wish they were made in a size 10-12 which would be easier for me to cast on etc..With age it becomes slightly more difficult to use shorter DPNs....

My first IC set was Karbonz, and I still love them. My only wish is that the tips were a bit sharper, as I prefer very sharp tips. Also the size 7 needles in my IC set have needed replacement twice now because one of them keeps stripping out and won't tighten onto the cord. But these are the only issues I've had with Karbonz. When I got into sock knitting, I picked up the DPN set in sizes 0-3, and they are now the only needles I use for socks. I tend to be a loose knitter, so I needed some smaller sizes too. I may be wrong, but I think Karbonz is the only (certainly one of the only) lines to include sizes as small as 00000 (1mm). It's a bit like knitting with mechanical pencil leads, but they work. At that size they are considerably more flexible than the larger sizes and require an extra-gentle touch, but just being able to knit with a 1mm needle is fantastic.

Love these needles! Have two sets and am in the market to get more.

I picked these up at my local yarn shop ...while looking for a small size needle that would withstand the pressure of my tight stiches. They are wonderful and i now need more sizes of them!!

My favorites. Best points, they will. not. break. Very smooth, but not ridiculous. Warm, and light weight. The best of all worlds for me. YAY!

I had heard so many great reviews, so I decided to try theses needles out. I have been in love since first stitch! I love everything about these needles. I have wood, bamboo, 3 different types of plastic, several different metals and these are the BEST!!!!!!! Betsy in the soggy Seattle suburbs

I am THRILLED with the Karbonz needles. I bought size 1 to see how they held up. No bending or breaking. The price was a bit more than I usually spend on bamboo, but I can see they will be worth it the more I use them. I now have sizes 3 and 5, and will be getting the remaining sizes as my paycheck allows. I don't see me going back to wood or aluminum after the carbon fiber.

I bought a set of Karbonz double pointed needles, wasn't really sure about them at first, they are more expensive then all of my other needles! But.......I am knitting a pair of socks and I absolutely fell in love with my new needles! I will be in the market for others of this kind now! Wishing I could exchange ALL of my other needles for the new Karbonz!!

I cringed a little when I bought these because they cost a bit more... but I'll be going back to pick up more sets... LOVE THEM! They are so easy to knit with - nice tips, and they're not as slippery as my nickel plated set.

I've had an opportunity to use the size 0 DPNs and they work beautifully. Because my tension was super tight, I expected to either bend or break the needles but they proved to be sturdy and resilient. I love the silkiness of the nickel-plated tips that prevented me from splitting the yarn.

What a fantastic choice of needles. I was looking for something new to try. These were recommended by a friend and I had to get my hands on them. I will say that your product is without a doubt a 5 star product. These needles are not slippery nor are they grabby, they hold a wool yarn in place nicely. They are warm to the touch and flexible enough. Thanks for the great experience.

I am watching these knit socks like a dream...they are magical!
- bobbie Howard

These are THE BEST- best of both worlds in knitting- you have the sharp steel tips, and the less slick, but still super smooth needle- you MUST make these in sizes bigger than 4- in DPN's and circular....I LOVE them
- Michelle Villanti

these needles are fantastic...I love them and think they are pretty close if not the best needle I've ever used...Can't wait to buy more of them...
- Pat Mackey

Bought size 2 on line. Love these! My Lantern Moon rosewoods snapped in the smaller sizes. Bamboo needles don't even come close. I just recommended these to my LYS.

I have Karbonz DPN's in Sz. 2 - so kind to my hands, and tips are plenty sharp for the intricacies of sock knitting. I prefer the shorter 6, and would love love to get a US 4 set.
- Nancy Fanzlaw

I like that they do not bend or snap like bamboo but are not as harsh on your hands as regular steel needles but the transition between tip and needle is definitely something you can feel and since I knit very tight, some yarn snags a bit and my fingertips is getting roughened up from running across the transition. I bought size 00, 0 and 1, and they are much better than bamboo needles. Also, the shop I bought them from had to replace one set due to discolorations on the tip and the size marking coming off.
- Barb Rhoton
