The HiyaHiya Guide: Knitting Needles, Sets & Accessories

Find Your Perfect Tip

With four different interchangeable tip styles to choose from, HiyaHiya makes it easy to find a needle that suits your knitting. Each option offers a slightly different feel and level of precision, from smooth stainless steel to warm bamboo.

Steel

Lightweight, smooth and versatile, HiyaHiya Steel tips are a great all-round option for everyday knitting. Their hollow stainless steel construction keeps them light in the hand, while the smooth surface allows stitches to move easily across the needle.

Sharp Steel

When you need a little more precision, reach for Sharp Steel. These tips have a fine, tapered point that makes it easier to work detailed stitch patterns, lace and individual stitches.

Square Sharp Steel

Combining a square profile with a sharp point, Square Sharp Steel tips offer a different feel in the hand while maintaining the precision HiyaHiya is known for. They’re a great option for knitters looking to try something a little different.

Bamboo

Prefer the warmth and feel of natural materials? HiyaHiya Bamboo tips offer a lightweight alternative to steel, with the familiar feel of bamboo in the hand. They’re a comfortable choice for knitters who enjoy a little more grip as they work.

Choose The Right HiyaHiya Needles For Your Project

Whether you prefer the simplicity of a fixed circular or the flexibility of an interchangeable system, HiyaHiya has a needle for every kind of project. The range includes fixed circulars, interchangeable tips, Flyers, interchangeable Flyer tips and double pointed needles, with different tip styles and sizes available across the collection.

Fixed Circulars

A HiyaHiya Set for Every Knitter

If you’re looking to build your collection or prefer having a selection of sizes ready to go, HiyaHiya’s needle sets bring some of the range’s most useful options together in handy cases. From comprehensive interchangeable collections to dedicated sock sets, there’s a set to suit different knitting styles and projects.

Interchangeable Sets

For a versatile collection that can grow with your knitting, the Sharp Steel Premium Interchangeable Set, Steel Premium Interchangeable Set and Bamboo Premium Interchangeable Set each include eight pairs of interchangeable tips, four interchangeable cables, a cable key, sheep needle gauge, cable connector set and needle grips, all presented in a traditional Chinese brocade case.

Fixed Circular Needle Sets

Prefer the simplicity of fixed circulars? The Sharp Steel Sock Fixed Circular Set and Bamboo Sock Fixed Circular Set bring together a selection of 23cm circular needles in smaller sizes, making them well suited to socks and other small-circumference projects.

For Magic Loop knitters, the Bamboo Magic Loop Set includes four 102cm circular needles in 2.25mm, 2.50mm, 2.75mm and 3.00mm. The longer cables give you the flexibility to work smaller circumferences with the Magic Loop technique.
