Jumbo Birch circular needles are made from lightweight but strong birch wood. They are great for working with thick and chunky yarns. They are ideal for knitting projects such as blankets, rugs and large-scale garments and coverings of all types. The needles have a smooth finish as well as a smooth join to ensure easy stitch glide and no snagging. The resilient, flexible cords lay flat with no kink or twist – easy to store. Warm to the touch, and gentle in the hand.
