HiyaHiya Bamboo Flyers
These feel slightly flimsy compared to the steel ones. Otherwise would have been 5 stars. Needles of choice for socks, cuffs, etc. They take a bit of getting used to but much easier to handle than DPNs in my opinion.

Found these much easier to use than straight dpns. They are pointed at tips but they have been great for knitting socks using West Yorkshire spinners 4ply Do need a little care as easy to split wool with the pins. I would recomend them

I loved using these needles more than I expected, a true innovation that actually works, feels comfortable in your hands and are fit for purpose. Would like in every size
I’m a recent convert to flexi needles for sock knitting as I have a high ‘casualty’ rate with 2.5 wooden dpns These bamboo tipped ones are much easier to use than the shiny steel ones I started with and much kinder to my arthritis
i do not fly with them going to resell
I am a real fan of these three little needles which are just perfect for socks. The sharps are really sharp so beware if you use the tip of your finger to push stitches or use a splitty yarn. I prefer the normal steel tips which are still fairly pointed. The cord joins are really smooth which is important if the join rests between your thumb and index finger which it does for the way I knit. You will find your own way after a bit of practice. I have tried another brand of these trios but I really prefer the Hiyahiya joins and length.
Introducing HiyaHiya's flexible double-pointed knitting needles! One needle is used to knit with, while the others are used to hold the stitches of your sock. Because there are less needle transitions, knitting with the HiyaHiya Flyers will be quick and smooth in comparison to other needles.
The flexible cables and seamless joins are teamed with high quality stainless-steel tips to offer strength, with a hollow construction for a lovely, lightweight feel.
Available in standard steel or sharp steel (more tapered tip, ideal for intricate stitch patterns). 3 lengths to choose from: 5"/12.5cm, 6"/15cm or 8"/20cm.
