Review: Wonderful Needles - I couldn’t be happier with this set of 5.0mm FlexiFlips. I’ve purchased different sock sizes as well as bamboo FlexiFlips, but this is my 1st set over 3.0mm I love the fact that they have the turbo tip and blunt tip. My tip for using them for the sock heels is to knit the last row before you start your method is to use the blunt end so when you knit back, you have the turbo end for picking up stitches. It works great for the toe as well. I’ve recently been using the Turkish cast on and I love it. I will continue to purchase multiple sizes of FlexiFlips, I like them for making baby hats as well. Just anything with a small diameter. These are smooth (no snagging) and let you knit up quickly.
Review: These are great alternative to std DPN - I like the flexing needles because they were easier for me than using DPN. Because they’re flexible I had an easier time finishing my hat when I was decreasing stitches. I would highly recommend.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do these needles come in a storage tube?**
A: Yes! It’s clear tube with a red rubber stopper. These needles are awesome!

**Q: I ordered two sets of 2.25 and got one set of 2.25 and one set of 2.5.  how do I resolve this problem?  Cannot find a contact number to talk to you ab**
A: Call Amazon customer support, if you don't have the seller name & contact info.

**Q: What is the maximum circumference that I can knit using these needles? Can I knit a sleeve that is 12.5" under arm and 10.5" at the cuff?**
A: Hello!!

Not sure what the absolute max would be as you can squish the stitches up comfortably with the flexi's~ so 12.5" and 10.5" will not be a problem.

**Q: What is the largest size needle flexi flips make?**
A: Hello, nice question.  The largest size of needle is the US 8.  The sizes include 0, 0.5,1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8.  Hope this helps!  Morgan, allpointsyarndotcom.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ These are great alternative to std DPN

I like the flexing needles because they were easier for me than using DPN. Because they’re flexible I had an easier time finishing my hat when I was decreasing stitches. I would highly recommend.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect tool for the job
*by A***0 on May 31, 2025*

I love the Addi Flexi-Flips for all of my DPN needs. The yarn moves effortlessly across the needles, cords and the joins. There is a slight learning curve, however watching a video on how to use them took care that.
