Prym double-pointed knitting needles, plastic, 10 mm, 20 cm, grey

Prym double-pointed knitting needles 10 mm – grey plastic set

The Prym double-pointed knitting needles in 10 mm come as a set of 5 needles in grey plastic, for anything knitted in the round, such as hats, gloves, wrist warmers or socks. Each needle has two points and is 20 cm long.

According to Prym, the surface is smooth and easy to grip, so the stitches slide easily along the needles. The neutral grey colour helps you see your stitches clearly. At 10 mm, this set is intended for super chunky yarns.

Working with the needles

When knitting in the round, you divide the stitches between four needles and knit with the fifth. Needles with two points let you work in both directions. The 20 cm length is handy for larger stitch counts, such as hats or wrist warmers in chunky yarn. The stitches sit well on the smooth needles, but they do not slip off easily when you put your knitting down for a moment.

Which size to choose

This set is the right choice if your pattern calls for 10 mm needles, for example for super chunky yarn or several strands knitted together. For finer sock yarn you will need thinner needles. Prym offers these needles in many sizes: up to 5.0 mm in aluminium, from 5.0 mm in grey plastic. What matters is the tension given in your pattern.
