I’m used to knit socks using 5 dpn, that so easy and comfortable for my hands. I tried 3 flexible dpn. To me they are totally useless. Extremely uncomfortable, I don’t know where to hold my hands. But if it works for you, that’s good. The main point it to enjoy knitting.

Thank you for sharing how to use the flexiflips!! And I love your nails and tats ❤

[@paulafarnham]

Have been sock knitting forever with these gems. Love

[@beckydavis2252]

Thank you for showing us how to use the flex needles. I plan to ytry making socks this year and thought I would try these needles. So, this was very helpful. So, thankful you showed us how to use. Have a great day.

Thank you! I just got a pair because using dpns was very cumbersome. I like to knit cuffs onto crochet projects so these were needed. I wish they were cheaper to purchase but I see now that they are an investment.

[@bettyeberle3838]

Thank you for your video. I was looking all over You Tube for help on what you just taught and I could not find anything then I found your video. Thank you so very much for making it and posting it.

It looks like there is a longer space between stitches on two two needles. Won’t that ladder?

[@yvettepalacios3435]

I think you have to pull the join tight so it won't ladder and when it grows bigger then before adding the third needle work three stitches with 2 needles then add the third. I'm working on a knitted knocker and I'm using flexi flips

[@ls-l1518]

I always move the needles around the work when I use 5 needles. Every 5 round or so, I knit 2 more stiches on to the needle, move the last 2 stiches over to the next needle. Haven't tried these. But would move it around.

I love my DPNs. But I need these. I have to order a pair. My LYS closed a while ago so all I have are the chain craft stores.

[@alicekelly4975]

Teacher April Order from Handsome Fibers to support a small business, always a coupon code and they ship in the USA for free.

[@juliafunk6312]

I ordered all of them from
twitchy hands creative, inc. They are awesome an american company. She is also on ravelry.

[@Frandorman]

Just got some from Amazon. Ordered early friday, got them today.

[@Knits-WIPs-N-Chains]

I love my Addi Flexi Flips I found them after trying curved DPNs(after watching your tutorial). They are my current favorites. Although I still love my DPNs and curved DPNs.

What are the most stitches you can hold on those needles ? Can you make adult hats or baby stuff

[@theastewart6721]

Thanks for showing us how to use them. I love my Addi Turbo interchangeables and fixed circulars so I know I will love these!

[@yvettepalacios3435]

Oh my gosh! You saved me!! Now I know what I did wrong. 🤦‍♀️

[@TailSpinFarm]

I just cast on a sock using these for the first time last night! I'm a DPN girl too, I love these!

[@candacekimball9366]

I so happy you demo…the best❤

[@debjewett7279]

I purchased some Addi Flex-Flip Turbo's and the connection between the center of the needle and the metal piece always gets hung up. I had hoped to love them, but my needles are not smooth. Do you think I got a bad set? Just curious. I put them back in the little tube container and went back to the Chiagoo mini's. Your input is appreciated. Thank you

[@margueriteantee7185]

Thank you

[@jetv1471]

Is this the same as using three circular needles with cables ?

[@Cthecool]

What if you knit Continental?

[@MichelleM0704]

I just can't get the hang of DPNs. So, I bought the flexi flips. Still can't get it! 🤯🤨😒

[@user-to8bj1hr3s]

Video would have been more helpful if she didn't keep straying out of camera view while working.

[@darciterrell7709]

I wanted to know how to use them. I already know how to join, work in the round, etc. This vid is missing how to hold these needles. You have a huge gap on the ends. Not a helpful vid…or change the title to “how to work in the round.”

[@dorothyrushforth888]

Too much faffing about and talking. I’m sorry but I learned nothing and was’nt impressed at all. Your video has actually put me off trying flexi-flips 😢

[@jenniebaker4464]

Sorry....could only watch for a few minutes......dark tipped nails just kept distracting me. Kept wanting to clean them. 🙄

[@jakiethelegend]

It’s nail polish… 🙄

[@cleuzaslav9796]

Thank you.
