The 35cm format accommodates broader rows and larger stitch counts before they become crowded, making it the roomiest straight option in the Deluxe range.

Why choose the 35cm length?
Single pointed needles work as a traditional pair: stitches sit on one needle while the other works the row, then the project is turned. At 35cm overall, this set provides more straight-shaft room than the 25cm and 30cm formats for knitters who welcome the longer reach.
Each needle is 10cm longer than the 25cm set and 5cm longer than the 30cm set, so allow enough clear space around your hands and chair.
A shaped stopper at the back of each needle helps contain the live stitches and completes the colour-coded Dreamz design.
Flat knitting explained
Traditional back-and-forth rows—not circular knitting
Single pointed needles create flat fabric. Scarves and panels can be used directly; garments and shaped accessories are assembled or seamed as the pattern directs. Hats, sleeves, cuffs and mittens require a flat-knit pattern when made with this set.
- Cast the required stitches onto one needle
- Work each row onto the second needle
- Turn the project at the end of every row
- Block, assemble and seam when the pattern requires it
The traditional row sequence
Cast on, work across, turn and return
Cast OnLoad one needle
Work RowTransfer stitches
TurnChange direction
Work BackBuild the next row
For seamless tubes: choose circular needles, double pointed needles or another method specified by the pattern. A direction to “join to work in the round” cannot be completed with a pair of single pointed needles.
Polished birchwood with instant size recognition
Dreamz needles are manufactured from laminated birchwood and finished in radiant, size-specific colours. Their tapered points support accurate entry into loops and patterned stitches, while the wooden surface holds yarn more readily than highly polished metal.
Eight complete 35cm pairs in one organised case

Follow the pattern and use a tension swatch to select the correct diameter for the required gauge.
What is not included: yarn, patterns, stitch markers, a tape measure, needle gauge, scissors and finishing needles are not listed as contents of Dreamz Deluxe 200647.
Projects that suit the 35cm format
The usable shaft is shorter than the full 35cm overall length because the point and stopper occupy part of the needle. Choose this length when you want generous capacity on traditional straights; move to a suitable circular needle used back and forth when rows become crowded or the growing fabric feels heavy.
Scarves
Useful room for standard and wider scarves, ribbing, texture, colourwork strips and shaped ends.
Sweater pieces
Can suit fronts, backs and sleeves when each flat section fits comfortably along the working shaft.
Cardigan pieces
Work separate fronts, back sections, bands and sleeves before blocking and assembly.
Flat shawls
Useful for smaller or moderate-width shapes; move to longer needles as increasing stitch counts require.
Seamed hats
Follow a flat-knit design, shape the crown as directed and complete the finishing seam afterward.
Baby blankets
Well matched to panels, strips and narrower blankets; broad rows may need longer needles or a cable.
Home accessories
Suitable for cushion pieces, cloths, panels and decorative rectangles that fit the shaft.
Swatches & samples
Eight sizes make it easy to test gauge, yarn response and stitch patterns before a larger project.
Is the Dreamz Deluxe 35cm Set right for you?
A strong choice if you…

- Regularly use 3.50–8.00mm needle sizes

- Mainly make smaller projects with modest stitch counts
- Have limited clear space around your chair or arms
- Prefer project weight to rest on a flexible cable
- Need sizes below 3.50mm or above 8.00mm included

Should you choose 25cm, 30cm or 35cm straights?
| Feature | 25cm / 10in | 30cm / 12in | 35cm / 14in |
|---|---|---|---|
| Official Deluxe article | 200645 | 200646 | 200647 |
| Best reason to choose | Most compact handling and storage | Balanced everyday reach and working space | Most straight-shaft room for wider rows |
| Typical project scale | Smaller flat pieces and modest stitch counts | Scarves, garments, panels and moderate flat rows | Wider scarves, shawls, garment pieces and blanket panels |
| Feel while knitting | Least needle extending beyond the hand | Middle reach with added capacity | Longest reach and greatest straight-shaft capacity |
| Storage | Smallest case footprint | Medium case footprint | Longest case footprint |
| Main limitation | Crowds sooner as stitch count grows | Very broad rows may still need more room | Requires more clear space around the knitter |
35cm is the roomiest straight option: compare the Dreamz 25cm Set for compact handling or the Dreamz 30cm Set for a balanced middle length. A circular needle used back and forth can be better for very wide or weighty fabric.
How to choose and use the pair
Read the pattern
Confirm that the project is worked flat and note the suggested needle size, yarn, stitch count and required gauge.
Match the pair
Select two needles of the same marked size and colour, then check that both points and shafts are smooth.
Knit a swatch
Measure the prepared swatch as directed and change needle size when your stitches or rows do not match gauge.
Check the cast-on
Spread stitches across the shaft. If they bunch tightly or press against the stopper, choose a longer needle.
Capacity is project-specific: the number of stitches that fits changes with diameter, yarn thickness and stitch structure. Do not force a row onto a needle that is too short.

KnitPro Dreamz Deluxe 35cm Set FAQs
What is the KnitPro article number?
The Dreamz Deluxe 35cm Single Pointed Needle Set is article 200647. Its GTIN is 8907628073077.
How many needles are included?
The case contains eight matching pairs, which is 16 individual single pointed needles in total.
Which metric sizes are included?
The eight pairs are 3.50, 4.00, 4.50, 5.00, 5.50, 6.00, 7.00 and 8.00mm.
Are 3.00mm, 3.25mm or 6.50mm included?
No. Article 200647 does not include 3.00, 3.25, 3.75, 6.50, 9.00 or 10.00mm. Purchase the exact required size separately or choose another set.
Are these wooden knitting needles?
Yes. Dreamz needles are manufactured from polished laminated birchwood in radiant, size-specific colours.
What does single pointed mean?
Each straight needle has one working point and a stopper at the opposite end. The pair works back and forth to create flat fabric.
Can I knit in the round with this set?
No. A pair of single pointed needles cannot join a row into a seamless tube. Use suitable circular needles or double pointed needles for in-the-round construction.
Can I knit sweaters and cardigans?
Yes, when the pattern is constructed in flat pieces and the required stitch count fits the needle. Work the fronts, back or sleeves separately, then block and assemble as directed.
Can I knit hats, sleeves or mittens?
Yes, with a flat-knit pattern. Work the shaped piece back and forth and complete the stated seam. Seamless versions require another needle type.
Is 35cm the usable stitch-holding length?
No. 35cm is the overall length of each needle. The tapered point and shaped stopper occupy part of that measurement, so the straight working shaft is shorter.
How many stitches fit on a 35cm needle?
There is no fixed number. Capacity depends on needle diameter, yarn thickness and stitch structure. Stitches should sit comfortably without being compressed or forced against the stopper.
Can I knit blankets with this set?
You can knit squares, strips, panels and narrower blankets. For very broad or heavy rows, a suitable circular needle used back and forth may carry the fabric more comfortably.
Why choose 35cm instead of 25cm?
The 35cm needles are 10cm longer, providing more shaft space for wider rows and larger stitch counts. The trade-off is more needle extending beyond the hand, so the 25cm set remains useful for compact handling and smaller projects.
Why choose 35cm instead of 30cm?
The 35cm needles add another 5cm of overall length for the greatest straight-shaft capacity. Choose 30cm when its working room is sufficient and a shorter reach better suits your space or knitting style.
How should I care for the birchwood needles?
Store them in the case, keep them away from moisture, direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, and wipe them with a soft dry cloth after use. Do not bend the needles or use them for anything other than knitting.
Give wider flat rows the shaft space they need
With eight colour-coded birchwood pairs, the full 35cm reach and a fitted Bordeaux case, Dreamz Deluxe 200647 is ready for wider scarves, larger garment pieces, shawls, blanket panels and substantial projects worked one row at a time.
