From the Norwegian word for happiness, Lykke crafts their Straight Knitting Needle Sets out of durable laminated birch. Warming in your hands as you work and beautifully smooth, these needles offer the ideal ‘not-too-sharp-not-too-dull’ point. The Indigo Set is dyed in soothing blue colors that are absorbed into the natural wood grain, and each needle features a black metal cap, stamped with the US and metric size for easy identification. Handcrafted in Kathmandu, Nepal, each set is housed in a durable blue denim case with elastic closures to keep the needles nice and tidy. Twelve sizes are included, ranging from US 4 (3.5 mm) to US 17 (12 mm), and you can choose from a 10- or 14-inch set.
