Knitter's Pride Cubics Double Pointed Needles 6"
Knitter's Pride Cubics Double Pointed Needles have a cuboid shape in the body of the needle that gradually gives way to perfectly tapered birch wood points. The ergonomic shape is comfortable to hold, lessens the need to grip tightly, and yields uniform stitch formation. The special shape also means that these needles stay put when not in use – no roll-aways! The densified, laminated wood is rich in appearance, yet it is also lightweight, strong, flexible, and warm to the touch. Needle size is measured diagonally and these needles fits into standard needle sizers just like round needles. Set of 5 needles. Also available in 8” length.

I recently purchased these needles in size 1 for socks. They are wonderful. I have used the metal cubic needles in the past and have found them to irritate my fingers. I have also used regular bamboo needles which bend and break.
So far, these are the best needles I have found. Love them!!!

Though these needles are a great concept, the number of splinters and flaky bits makes them impossible to work with. Of the five needles in the package, I had this problem with two of the needles. I will try waxing them to see if that will take down the splintering snags.

Comments about Knitter's Pride Cubics Double Pointed Needles 6":
Although these needles become a bit unwieldy when I've decreased down to the very last stitches of the beanies, for me it was well worth it as the yarn didn't slip off as easily as my other double pointed needles.

The shape does lend itself for more uniform stitches and the points are just sharp enough to not split wool.
