Make your own double pointed needles

Filed under: Shopping

I’ve started making my own double pointed needles (small ones 2.75 mm) for socks and the like. I purchased a large package of bamboo “shipudim” skewers, and sanded away. They feel great, but they aren’t as smooth as I would like

After looking at the website for Micro-Surface I think this might be the way to go. Has anyone ever used anything like this?

If you are looking for information on making your own needles. Here are some good sites.
