Basix Aluminium Single Pointed Knitting Needles are a dependable staple for every knitter's kit. Their smooth aluminium surface lets stitches glide on and off effortlessly, while the lightweight shaft keeps your hands comfortable through long sessions. A capped end stops stitches slipping off, and the gently tapered tips give clean, even stitches with consistent tension.

This pair measures 35 cm long in 5.50 mm. Single-pointed needles are worked in pairs and are ideal for flat knitting — scarves, baby clothes, dishcloths, garment panels and more. Match the needle size to your yarn weight: finer sizes for lightweight yarns and detailed work, larger sizes for chunky yarns and quick, cosy makes.

Knitting tip: shorter 25 cm needles suit smaller flat pieces and tighter spaces, while 35 cm needles hold more stitches for wider projects like wraps and blanket panels.
