KnitPro Karbonz Single Pointed Needles – Sleek, Fast, Technical… and Surprisingly Relaxing

If you’re ready to level up your knitting tools, Karbonz are where precision, speed and design meet. It’s the needle that says “serious knitter” without the bluster — high-tech look, but the same calm, mindful rhythm you cherish. Strong, light and sharp.

Crafted with carbon fibre composite and stainless steel tips, they deliver a smooth, swift knitting experience: minimal drag, excellent stitch-definition and the kind of handshake your hands will remember. Whether you’re making lace, cables, garments or socks (yes socks), Karbonz handle it all.

Why they feel so good

  • Speed & glide: The stainless steel tips give you fast, clean stitches; carbon fibre shafts keep the weight low — meaning less hand fatigue for "late into the evening knitting".

  • Precision: The sharp, defined points make it easier to pick up tricky stitches, cables, lace repeats — they reward skill, but don’t penalise clarity.

  • Strength & durability: These needles bend less, wobble less and feel rock-steady in hand.

  • Cool aesthetic: The black carbon and steel look is subtle, sophisticated — a contrast to the natural wood or bright colour of other ranges.

Ideal Projects for Karbonz

  • Lace patterns with intricate repeats

  • Cable-heavy garments where sharp points matter

  • Sock knitting (especially if you crave precision)

  • Advanced makers who appreciate high-performance tools

  • Projects where speed and stitch definition really matter

Why I stock Karbonz at McIntosh

Because when you’re serious about your making, you’ll want tools that match the ambition. I test all my needles (millions of stitches later, yes) and Karbonz stood out for being fast yet comfortable, sharp yet forgiving. They say “I knit well” — but they also say “I knit calmly”.

If you’re looking for knitting tools that deliver edge and ease, Karbonz are absolutely worth the upgrade.
