I enjoy working with LYKKE needles so much. I love both wood and metal needles, but for some projects bamboo is too sticky and metal is too slick. LYKKE is the best of both worlds. The needles are smooth, but not slick or rough. It feels like knitting with BUTTER!

From the LYKKE Website:

“Named after the Norwegian word for happiness, LYKKE Crafts combine high quality materials and thoughtful design to produce beautiful, durable, happy-making knitting needles. Our beautiful needles and hooks are handcrafted and assembled. Our production routines do not rely on mechanized automation. Instead, our products benefit from the skilled and graceful touch of fine local craftspeople. And as global demand is increasing for our products, this community of skilled workers is growing too, expanding our output capacity. We value the opportunity to employ this growing community of skilled craftspeople and happily embrace the natural, human pace of production. As customers of LYKKE Crafts, we thank you too, for your patience and support. “
