HARMONY WOOD KNITTING NEEDLES
Yarns
Unlimited now carries Harmony Wood Knitting Needles in straight, double point, and circular
styles including straight and interchangeable needle sets.
YOU CAN OBTAIN THESE NEEDLES AT YARNS UNLIMITED FOR THE SAME LOW PRICE offered online, without the shipping cost!
Here's an online description of these needles:
"The smooth and lustrous surface of our Harmony wood needles allows your stitches to move freely for hours of comfortable knitting. Made from multi-colored laminated birch wood with waves of color, the sharp, gradually tapered points slip easily into stitches so even complicated cables and K3togethers move along quickly. The Harmony wood warms quickly in your hands, and the burnished surface provides just the right amount of grip to easily manage slippery yarns like mohair and angora."
