Brittany Double Pointed Needles 5"

Brittany double points are made in California from sustainably harvested birch. 

These finely crafted wooden needles are hand finished and exactly sized. 

They are not only beautiful to look at but feel warm and smooth in your hands and are a pleasure to work with.

Why buy Brittany needles and hooks? Probably the best reason has to do with the benefits of wood. Wood is warm, smooth and soft. It won’t drain heat from sensitive fingers the way aluminum and plastic needles do. We have many comments from arthritis patients and their doctors that they wouldn’t be knitting if it weren’t for wooden needles. The warmth and smoothness of hardwood nurtures sensitive fingers and provides natural strength and consistency for a lasting product.

Birch is a superior wood for this purpose, its tensile strength and stability maintains size, resists warping and allows for an extremely smooth surface. It is lightweight so the needles won’t fall out of your knitting yet our proprietary finish provides for one of the slickest needles on the market.

Wood is our greatest renewable natural resource. It is environmentally friendly; it’s recyclable, biodegradable and durable; when it is no longer needed it can be returned to the earth.

Why Our Needles are Only Available at Independently Owned Retailers

Our products have never been sold in any chain or big box store.
We think it is important to support “small businesses” for a variety of reasons. Among them are that they better represent our products and can give you better customer service. They can help you with any questions you may have and if they don’t have something on their shelf you can always ask them to order it for you. Also, local businesses are more likely to give back to their community and that is always something we get behind. If you don’t have a local yarn shop you can walk into there are many that sell online and/or have mail order catalogs. Thank you for supporting us and your LYS, we all appreciate your business. ♥
