Knitting Needles
Here you'll find a selection of knitting needles (sometimes known as knitting pins), including some that are particularly suitable for children who are learning to knit.
Our most popular beginners' knitting needles are the yellow plastic 4mm (old UK Size 8) needles - reference ESS001. These are ideal for children learning to knit as they're lightweight and short in length, so they're really easy to handle.
When learning to knit, you're likely only to be working with a small number of stitches, so a pair of short (18cm length) needles is all that a child should need to learn the basics and craft their first knitted masterpieces.
The 4mm size also works perfectly with double knitting yarn - just the right thickness for beginners to handle.
Happy knitting!
