Basix birch fixed circular knitting needles took KnitPro by surprise when they became one of their most popular products! Now you can find out what all the fuss is about. Perfect for that chunky yarn that knits up hats and blankets so quickly, these birch fixed circular needles are smooth to the touch and lightweight.
Why We Love Basix Fixed Circular Knitting Needles
Basix birch fixed circular knitting needles are great for beginning knitters. They are so smooth that the stitches just glide! People with dexterity issues also like them because they are light, they don’t drag or snag on the yarn and they are warm to the touch. Because they are birch, they will be a bit stiffer than bamboo needles but also longer-lasting. The cable is designed to be kink-free and stow away easily.
