Lantern Moon Glory Review – Interchangeable Knitting Needles with Luxury and Practicality
Every so often, a needle set comes along that feels like a little piece of luxury, and the Lantern Moon Glory set is exactly that. Opening the embroidered khadi silk case to reveal the rich ebony wood tips, I knew straight away this was something special. Compact, elegant and beautifully made, it has quickly become one of the sets I genuinely look forward to using.
First Impressions – Smooth Ebony Elegance
The set includes eight pairs of 13cm tips, from 3.00mm to 8.00mm, offering a versatile range for everyday knitting. The needles are handcrafted from ebony, finished with Lantern Moon’s signature “liquid silk” polish. They feel warm in the hand, smooth without being slippery, and stitches glide across them without a snag. The finely honed points provide the precision needed for lace and cables, while remaining forgiving for plain knits.
Why Knitters Value This Set
The 13cm length strikes the perfect balance: long enough for stability, yet compact enough to avoid getting in the way. The 24k plated brass connectors create seamless joins, and three swivel cords in 60cm, 80cm and 100cm lengths make moving between projects effortless. From lightweight cardigans to cosy shawls, transitions are smooth and uninterrupted.
Everyday Knitting Experience
The extras included show real attention to detail. Wooden end caps, tightening tools and colourful tassel stitch markers are all practical and charming. The khadi silk case is both beautiful and functional, sturdy enough to protect the needles while remaining compact and travel-friendly. Being machine-washable, it is easy to care for and keeps looking fresh even with frequent use.
Final Thoughts – Luxury Meets Everyday Use
The Lantern Moon Glory set strikes an ideal balance between indulgence and practicality. Elegant and dependable, it makes knitting feel smoother and more enjoyable. It is the set I reach for when I want comfort, quality and a touch of beauty woven into the process.
