Prym Ergonomics 194000 Double pointed sock Knitting Needle Pin Set 2.5mm-4.0mm . 

This set of double-pointed knitting needles from the prym.ergonomics range is lovely. The boxed gift consists of four sets of colour-printed sets of needles in gauges 2.5 mm, 3.0 mm, 3.5 mm and 4.0 mm. The needles are 20cm long. In attractive packaging this makes the perfect gift. The needles are made from alabaster white high-quality high-performance synthetic material, they bend easily and are extremely quiet to use. The drop-shaped points make picking up and transferring the yarn when knitting socks and sleeves so much easier and stop the yarn from slipping too quickly from the point. The unique, triangular shape of the shaft ensures that the stiches glide easily along the needle shaft without the annoyance of having to push them along. Each needle gauge has its own colour making it quick and easy to find the five matching needles in each set.

I use these needles for Fair-isle knitting and love them. My favourite double pointed needles.
