🧡 Essential Knitting Tools & Accessories

The best needles, stitch markers, and must-have tools for every knitter.

βœ”οΈ Best Knitting Needles –

ChiaGoo are one of my favorites. I have several sizes and several cord lengths. The joins are solid and secure. I just love the cord and the pointy points. My second favorite is any needles from Knit Picks. I tend to knit everything on circular needles and I have a variety of sizes and cord lengths. I also have interchangeable needles too. But I love a fixed length and 16″ and 24″ are my go-to.

I’m new to the Karbonz needles and really love them. They are strong and lightweight and make a little clicking sound while I’m knitting. I love metal needles for keeping my hands cool and these needles are wonderful.

βœ”οΈ Must-Have Stitch Markers

I like both the “safety pin” types and the closed circles. Depending on the needle size, you may need different markers. Some hang on your needles as you knit and some you clip to the knitting itself and mark a spot as you knit.
