I'm working on another installment of the Interchangeable Knitting Needle Guide. Can you guess which needles?

Here's one hint: these needles are part of a destiny...

Well some of those hints weren't so subtle, but the Lantern Moon Interchangeable Knitting Needles are next on our list. These interchangeables come in rosewood and ebony, which are considered to be some of the most luxurious materials for knitting needles. We haven't tested them yet to see whether the materials make such a difference, but we're going to give them a try.

From the Lantern Moon Site, here's what the Rosewood set includes for $308:

Complete set includes 10 pairs of needles, 4 cords, and a silk compact zip case in an available color.

Needles: US Sizes 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 10.5, 11, 13
Cords: 17", 26", 32" and 40" lengths

 

Here are details on the Ebony Set for $352.00

What is Ebony anyway?

Ebony is a dark tropical wood that is considered harder and more durable than other woods. You can read more here from wikipedia, but it's a rare wood, which is one of the reasons why these needles are more expensive.

Complete set includes 10 pairs of needles, 4 cords, and a silk compact zip case in an available color.

Needles: US Sizes 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 10.5, 11, 13
Cords: 17", 26", 32" and 40" lengths

Stay tuned. We'll have the full reviews here soon.
