ChiaoGoo: Bamboo 6" Double Pointed Needles (DPN's)

ChiaoGoo's 6" (15 cm) bamboo double pointed needles are made from Moso bamboo, one of the densest and hardest bamboos available, with precisely tapered, hand crafted tips. The bamboo is heat treated to give it a warm patina, and both the metric and US size are permanently laser imprinted on each needle, so there is no guessing which set you have picked up.

At 15cm/ 6in long they are a comfortable length for socks, mittens, hats and sleeves, and the bamboo has a gentle grip that helps keep stitches from sliding off, which makes them a lovely choice for slippery yarns and for anyone new to knitting in the round.
