Why are there different types of knitting needles?
Knitting projects can look completely different, but are all created with the same tool - the knitting needle. But there is more than just one knitting needle - in countless shapes, lengths and with different surfaces and materials.
It's a matter of personal taste which type of knitting needle you prefer, but it's important to know that not every needle is suitable for every knitting project.
So before knitting needles are purchased, it should be clear what is to be knitted and, crucially, what yarn is to be used. Also, the question of whether a pattern will be knitted, can influence the choice of knitting needle.
So knitting project and needle must fit each other to achieve a beautiful result and enjoy knitting.

It's just not nice when, for example, stitches don't slip evenly over the needle and you have to constantly "fight" with them. This is no fun and the desire to continue knitting dwindles. In the end, the knitted piece may end up as a "UFO" (unfinished object) in some corner. That would be a real pity.
To clarify: If you want to hammer a nail into the wall, you don't choose a screwdriver as a tool - do you?
