If you’ve ever stood in a wool shop surrounded by knitting needles and felt completely baffled this is the video for you.

I will guide you through the vast array of needles that I have accumulated over my years of knitting and suggest which needles might suit you for different reasons.

I’ll explain why my favourite needles earned pride of place in my knitting bag. Do let me know which needles you prefer and why.

If you'd like to learn more about the inside secrets of beginner knitting, take a look here at Knitting Mastery For Beginners.

You'll discover and embrace the foundation secrets, so learning to knit will feel joyful and motivating, rather than frustrating and tear-inducing! (yep - I've been there!)
