LYKKE Cypra 15cm (6") Small Double Pointed Needle Set - Black Vegan Suede Case

£109.99

How lovely of LYKKE to create a convenient set of their 15cm (6") Cypra copper double pointed needles. Double pointed knitting needles are marvellous for knitting socks, mittens, gloves, hats, anything you'd knit 'in the round'. They're super useful when knitting tiny circumference tubes, like the thumb of a mitten.  

The small Cypra set comes with five of each of the following needle sizes:

  • 2.00mm - US 0
  • 2.25mm - US 1
  • 2.50mm - US 1.5
  • 2.75mm - US 2
  • 3.00mm - US 2.5
  • 3.25mm - US 3
  • 3.50mm - US 4
  • 3.75mm - US 5

LYKKE Cypra Knitting Needles are made from copper, so some colour variations will occur. If you love the natural charm of copper toning, sit back as Mother Nature works her beauty into your Cypra needles. Consider polishing your needles using your preferred copper cleaning product or technique to maintain that gleaming copper look.

Convenient set of wonderul needles

I recently bought both sets of the Cypra double pointed needles and I could not be happier. They are probably the best metal double points I've ever tried, and that's not an exaggeration. Not only are they well made, Lykke appears to have put quite a bit of thought into the design. At least for me, the needles unexpectedly address the common grievances of double points made with other materials. They have better presence and body when compared to wooden needles, but are also noticeably lighter and more agile than the average metal design. This balance extends to their texture as well: the DPN's are super smooth and allow the stitches to glide nicely. But in contrast, they aren't annoyingly slippery either, having the needle get past you and spontaneously sliding off the knitting completely. This has been an issue for me in the past, and why I had started avoiding metal double points for my projects.

It may be down to the craftsmanship of the Lykke brand, but copper as a material for knitting needles works so well, it makes you wonder why it hadn't been tried more broadly before. The copper is itself beautiful and the "Goldilocks" quality it appears to impart on knitting needle functionality is surprisingly impressive. Totally changed my opinion on metal needles and - because I am a frequenter of double points - easily justifies owning the full sets.

Highly Recommend!
