These knitting needles are inspired by the cubical shaped needles. Based on this idea, these needles have a 10 sides polygon or Decaon shape. This enables a perfect print on a flat print bed while giving a good egonomic feel and ensuring the yarn glides smoothly along the needle without catching.

After printing, visually they look round and the yarn glides well along the needle.

Print settings:

  • Layer height: 0.2 mm

  • Support: overang threshold 36 degrees

  • I have used PETG with 15 % infill, this makes the needles quite flexible which i like. For a more rigid feel, you can increase the infill percentage and/or use PLA.

  • Positioning the needles diagonally on the print bed allows them to fit on almost any printer.

I am always happy to see a picture of a successful print, so please share if possible!
