@joshuapsteele Aren’t they called pins? There are some knitters here, but I forget who…@ellenewman is maybe one?

@odd @joshuapsteele guilty as charged knitting wise :) 🧶I preferred wooden ones when I began. What size depends largely in weight of yarn you’re planning to use. Bigger needles with thicker yarn. Also one thing I wished I knew when I began is to start with lighter colored yarn so you can see the stitches easier.

@joshuapsteele Welcome to knitting! I also enjoy it, and use it to relax in the evening. I choose my needles based on the project. What are you going to make?
