Our KnitPro Knitting Needles Collection
KnitPro Mindful Collection
KnitPro's Mindful Collection needles blend beauty with mindfulness, designed to enhance your knitting experience. Made from high-quality stainless steel, these needles are crafted with a smooth finish and finely tapered tips for effortless knitting and perfect stitch definition. Each needle is engraved with an inspiring word, promoting calm and focus as you create.
We stock the Mindful Collection range in interchangeable, double-pointed (DPN), and circular needles, offering a meditative and soothing knitting experience with every stitch.
KnitPro Basix Range
The Basix range, as the name suggests, is a functional and affordable alternative to other ranges in the KnitPro family. Birch Basix needles are extremely lightweight, making them ideal for chunkier, heavier yarns that can be hard on hands.
Available in straights as well as fixed circulars, we carry them in sizes ranging from 3.50mm up to an impressive 35.00mm! The needle tips of the fixed circulars are longer than the interchangeable needle tips in other ranges which, especially in the larger sizes, makes the Basix much easier to hold.
Aluminium Basix needles are solid Aluminium with a grey anodised finish, which keeps them warmer in your hands than most metal needles, while still being very sturdy. We stock only the straight needles in this range, in 25cm and 30cm lengths.
KnitPro Cubics Range
The Cubics range offers a somewhat unique knitting experience. Made of laminated birch plywood, the needles have a square cross section. This design is excellent for anyone whose hands suffer from the cramps and fatigue that traditional needles can cause. As an added bonus, we have found that Cubics give a beautifully even tension, making them perfect for any project with large areas of plain knitting.
We stock the Cubics range in interchangeable, DPN and straight varieties.
KnitPro Karbonz Range
Karbonz Needles combine unparalleled strength with beauty for an elegant appearance. Karbonz Needles are made of carbon fibre, one of the strongest materials available today. Crafted to a smooth finish, the brass coated needle tips are finely honed and enable smooth knitting, easy pick up and excellent stitch definition.
We stock the KnitPro Karbonz range in interchangeable, double-pointed (DPN) and straight needles, offering a premium knitting experience with their lightweight, carbon fibre body and sleek metal tips. Perfect for precision and speed!
KnitPro Nova Range
Nova needles are a hollow brass needle with a nickel coating. These needles are beautifully smooth to work with and especially suited to those with a tighter tension, as the yarn slips off the needle with ease. They are pointy, without being sharp, allowing easy entry into each stitch.
We have these needles in interchangeable, DPN's and fixed circulars of different lengths, starting at the tiny 25cm circular needles for socks and sleeves including 40cm, 60cm and 80cm, plus our Nova Cubics Interchangeable Needle Set.
KnitPro Symfonie Range
The Symfonie is possibly KnitPro's most iconic range. Layers of coloured birch plywood give Symfonie needles their striking rainbow appearance and the lacquered finish ensures a smooth knitting experience, with enough grip to keep stitches comfortably on the needle. This makes them a great choice for beginners and those with looser tension or for working with fine or slippery wool.
The natural warmth and flexibility of wood means Symfonie needles are gentle on hands and wrists. Please note, wooden needles below 3mm become increasingly fragile, and require gentle handling.
Symfonie needles are available in a variety of styles and sizes, across our stores.
KnitPro Zing Range
Zing needles are solid Aluminium which makes them a little heavier than the Nova needles. They have a beautiful coloured coating that relates to the size as well as having the size printed on the needle. They are beautiful and smooth to knit with and allow for great speed when knitting. We stock these needles in interchangeable, DPN's , straights and some 80cm fixed circulars
Interchangeable Needle Sets
KnitPro also offer interchangeable needle sets across all their ranges. Sets are an excellent option for those starting out on their circular knitting journey, as well as for the more experienced among us, who may wish to expand their needle collection! We stock a number of different options, ranging from introductory sets containing 3 pairs of needle tips in popular sizes, to more comprehensive sets that contain a selection of sizes, from 3mm to 8mm. Cables of different lengths, and a variety of other accessories are included in each set.

Posted on by Marilyn SneddonI bought the Karbonz set of KnitPro needles just prior to the second Melbourne lockdown. While I am delighted that they are also interchangeable with KnitPicks circular needles and cables, I am disappointed that the sizes wear off the needles very quickly. I knit a lot and am also disappointed that the tips have worn very quickly e.g. the colour has changed. having said that, they are comfortable to use and the variety of sizes is good. I think that for this price it would be good if a pouch was provided rather than a bulky box.
