KnitPro Symfonie Double Pointed Needles — Colour, Calm and Gentle Precision
The KnitPro Symfonie DPNs bring together beauty, balance and a wonderfully reassuring knitting experience. Made from polished laminated birch wood, they have that unmistakable Symfonie feel — warm in the hand, smooth to the touch, and quietly confidence-giving from the very first round.
What sets Symfonie apart is the way they slow the knitting just enough. Stitches glide easily, but never feel in danger of slipping away, making them ideal for knitters who value control and rhythm when working in the round. The points are carefully shaped — precise without being sharp — so they’re kind to both yarn and hands, even during longer sessions.
Each set includes 5 double pointed needles, designed for small-circumference projects where comfort and consistency really matter. They’re particularly well suited to:
-
socks and mittens
-
sleeves and cuffs
-
hats worked from the crown
-
smaller projects where steady tension is key
The distinctive multicolour chevron pattern isn’t just decorative either. It makes the needles easy to spot, easy to identify, and genuinely joyful to use — a small detail that adds a surprising amount of pleasure to everyday knitting.
Why I sell them at McIntosh
I stock Symfonie DPNs because they align perfectly with the McIntosh way of making: mindful, tactile, and quietly joyful. These are needles that feel considered rather than engineered — tools that support you rather than demanding attention.
I’ve used them myself on socks and sleeves, and they shine in that calm, steady middle ground where the knitting feels unhurried and grounded. They’re especially lovely if you find metal needles too slippery or cold, and they make a reassuring companion if you’re settling in for a longer project.
Symfonie DPNs are the sort of needles you reach for when you want the process to feel as good as the finished piece.
