If you’ve ever struggled with juggling multiple double-pointed needles or found magic loop fiddly for small projects, the addiSockwonder might just change the way you knit forever.
This clever little circular needle from addi is specially designed for knitting small circumferences — socks, cuffs, sleeves, mittens, baby hats, and more. Measuring just 25 cm from tip to tip, it’s compact enough to handle the tiniest rounds, yet comfortable and smooth to knit with once you get the rhythm.
Unlike traditional circular needles, the addiSockwonder features two different needle tip lengths:
One shorter tip at 45 mm
One longer tip at 70 mm
This small but genius detail makes all the difference. The longer tip is held in your dominant hand for easier control and better leverage while knitting, while the shorter tip helps the stitches glide around the curve of the cable with ease.
It might look a little unusual at first — but once you’ve knit a few rounds, it starts to feel completely natural.
🧦 Perfect for Socks and Sleeves: The 25 cm length means you can knit the whole sock without switching needles.
🧤 No More Ladders: Because it’s a continuous circular, you won’t get those little gaps where DPNs meet.
🐣 Ideal for Baby Knits: Tiny cuffs, booties, and hats are a dream on these!
💨 Fast and Smooth: addi’s legendary slick nickel or brass tips (depending on version) and flexible cord mean your stitches fly.
🧶 Great for On-the-Go: Small enough to tuck into your project bag or even a pocket — no more dropped DPNs on the train.
There’s a small learning curve when you first try the Sockwonder — your hands might need to adjust to the shorter movement — but most knitters find it becomes second nature after just a few rounds.
Start with a simple project like a sock cuff or sleeve and let your hands learn the motion. Before long, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it!
