A square needle decreases contact stress by giving your fingers a flat surface to rest on while knitting. This is different from a traditionally-shaped round needle, which forces your fingers to rest on a smaller, convex-shaped surface area. This tension caused by a round needle can result in poor circulation and impaired nerves. Eliminating or reducing contact tension (by using a Square needle) can significantly reduce pain. We’ve had a number of customers tell us that they had stopped knitting until they discovered Kollage Square Knitting Needles! Square needles are perfect for knitters who have arthritis, carpal tunnel or stiffness in their wrists and fingers. Squares are designed to decrease pain and tension for those who love to knit. As a knitter, your hands are your most valuable tool! Even if you’re not currently experiencing hand or wrist pain, it’s worth treating them right by selecting needles and tools that support all the hard work they’ll be doing for years to come!

Nice to handle
I can’t say for sure if these are any better than a standard round knitting needle but I like them and so far have not had a “cramp up” episode with my hand. I do seem to knit a little tighter but I am by no means an expert knitter.

Great needles
I've been wanting to try these needles for a while but they seem hard to find. The needle tips are sharp and make it easy to pick up finicky stitches. I like to use them for picking up stitches on a ridge for log cabin patterns. I thought the cable might make the yarn catch but it doesn't. Nice knitting needles!

Love em
These square needles are a dream to use. I love them and now I want all my needles to be square. In fact a have a few sets of square dpns by the same vendor. They have great glide for the yarn but at the same time the shape keeps the yarn from slipping off. Its great.

These don’t make my hands cramp like the round ones do.
