These needles are in like new condition, stunning and so smooth. They are only produced in small batches in VT, meaning they frequently sell out with a significant backlog and wait list. They are crafted from what I believe the chestnut wood. The design features a hand-tapered “seamless curve”, offering a lace-friendly yet comfortable point. This set includes US size 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10 and 10.5. The needle holder in NOT included . I used it so you can see the sizes and needles more clearly. There are 2 caps and 4 cables included with lengths of approximately 9”, 13”, 22” and 30”.
