The Addi FlexiFlips needles are an efficient and pleasant alternative to double pointed needles. They consist of a set of three needles with a very short cable between the tips. These double points are flexible and easy to use and have an Addi Turbo tip on one end and an Addi Rocket tip at the other. Your stitches are on two of the needles and you use the third to knit with. A brilliant system!
