Straight needles are recommended to anyone starting off with knitting. With a knob end and a single-pointed sharp needle, you will learn to knit in no time. It is also important to have safe needles. These needles can create knots with ease, without the risk of being too sharp for the little ones.
These needles have a smiley face on the knob. This helps to prevent the wool from slipping off and knots from untying. The smiley also motivates beginners to keep going! Any child will love these as a gift.
The plastic body makes for a strong and sturdy needle. You don’t have to worry about these snapping too quickly in your little one’s hand. They are also lightweight and durable. This ensures they do not become too heavy when the kids are sewing.
It is highly recommended to supervise young children that knit. Keep it away from babies. Avoid your child from bringing the sharp end close to their face. Show them how to use it and care for it before letting them use it. Happy knitting teaching!
