Our addi Circular Knitting Needles
Since it can happen that stitches slip off the needle, especially with beginner knitters, a circular needle is a good choice for the first knitting objects.
Circular knitting needles have two tips that are connected to each other by a cable of variable length. You can use them to knit in back and forth rows or in rounds.
The needle can therefore be used flexibly for knitting projects in rounds such as hats, jumpers and jackets as well as for straight objects such as scarves, shawls and blankets.
Circular Knitting Needles
Because of their shorter tips (8.5–12.5 cm), circular knitting needles are more popular in Germany than straight needles (25–40 cm). The weight of the knitted piece rests on the cord rather than on the needle. This is more comfortable – especially for anyone who prefers to hold their needles loosely.
The needles, which are available from addi in lengths from 40 cm, are used for small knitting projects such as hats, but also for large projects such as cardigans. A circular knitting needle is suitable for almost every project.

Circular knitting needles are good for knitting larger circumferences, such as jumpers, tube scarves or shawls.
For knitting with a small diameter, such as socks or hats, a circular needle can sometimes be too long.
For this, there are either particularly short circular knitting needles such as the addiSockwunder or a needle set is used. With the addiCraSyTrio – an in-between circular needle and needle play – even the smallest rounds can be knitted, e.g. for finger gloves.
