Cast-on to an effortless new method of knitting socks, cuffs, hats, and many of other projects which are worked in the round, with the addi® FlexiFlips. Made specifically for North America, these specially designed 21cm circulars (3.5" tips with 1" cord) rest comfortably in the hand, and act as flexible double pointed needles. Easy to use, stitches are simply distributed over two needles, and then knit with the third - resulting in only two needle changes per row.
Featuring the same dual-tip design as the popular addi® FlipStix, the FlexiFlips feature both an addi® Rocket tip and an addi Turbo® tip. You will always have the right needle, when you need it. Overly versatile, FlexiFlips also make great cable needles.
With this 3-piece set of flexible sock knitting needles, now, even the smallest diameters can be knitted very easily, and without getting tired. This is possible due to the particular flexibility of the middle part, and the combination of one BASIC- and one LACE tip. Each needle is 85 mm long connected by a 40 mm cord. When knitting in rounds, the stitches are distributed over two needles and the third needle is used for easy knitting – meaning only two needle changes per row. The needle fits into any hand, and so ensures a very pleasant knitting experience.

Short row heels are a breeze on these, just split your stitches with half on each of 2 needles.
You can knit heel flaps by placing one third of the stitches on one needle and the rest on the other.
