Denise Needles Rock!


My latest purchase is a set of Denise Interchangable Needles. I've been using the Boye Needlemaster set but found them difficult to use. The differences between the two:
  • The Boye needles are metal and VERY sharp while the Denise needles are plastic. I'm finding that it is much more difficult to split the yarn with the plastic needles. Also, I have a feeling that the plastic needles will pass through airport security much easier.
  • With the Boye needles you screw the tips onto the ends of the cords. You twist the Denise needles and they lock in place.
I started working on the Irish Hiking Scarf a couple of days ago. I transferred the project from the Boye to the Denise set and started knitting. Big difference. I'm knitting much faster. Very cool!
