Lantern Moon Needles
Many knitters would’ve heard about Lantern Moon Needles as being a luxury knitting needle. Although no longer manufactured, there are still some available online, but those stocks won’t last forever.
Lantern Moon Needles were made from luxury hardwoods such as ebony wood and rosewood. They used more affordable woods such as palm wood.
Their mission was to create products from sustainable forests and support the families who made them by paying them good wages.
They come in straights and circulars. They’re visually beautiful and have a lovely feel in the hand. The sizes and lengths online are limited as production finished in 2018.
Although they offered Straights in 10”, 12” and 14” and circulars in 16”, 26”, 32” and 40” from US4-US13 it’ll be difficult to find the size you’re after.
Features of Lantern Moon Needles:
- Smooth surface
- Lightweight
- Warm in the hand
- Beautiful polished wood grain

Made from aircraft-quality anodized aluminum coated in a vibrant colors.
Available in straight, double-point, and “convertible” circular styles. This Signature Convertible is a considerable investment. But as the old saying goes, ‘you get what you pay for’.
The points on the straights come in three different styles – Stiletto, Middy or Blunt. Stiletto is the sharpest point, Middy is a midway sharp point shorter than the Stiletto. The Blunt is blunter and not as long as the Stiletto point.
They’re available in 7”, 10”, and 14” lengths in a range of sizes.
The decorative ends of the straight needles are available in three different options, Tear, Bell and Spiral. Each look very lovely.
Double pointed needles have the stiletto point with the exception of the 4″ needles, which have a Stiletto point on one and blunt on the other.
With the Signature circulars, there’s a choice of 2 points, the Stiletto or Middy. Stiletto tip features a sharp point with an elongated profile and a Middy tip has a shorter profile designed for tighter knitters.
The assorted colors are lovely and bright in green, purple, gold, red and blue.
For those who love a slick, metal needle, these are a wonderful luxury option.

My eldest said to me recently, “Some of these would make a great gift for you and it would make your knitting so much easier.”
Indeed it would! I need to follow my own advice and alert my husband to this idea. Hopefully he’ll say yes 🙂

No mention of ChiaoGoo?
Hi Annette, not in this post but in my post about interchangeables I’ve reviewed ChiaoGoo. I’d love to hear about your experience using ChiaGoo needles. Cheers Jodie
I bought an incredibly luxe set of rosewood interchangeable needles by Zen on Fabulous Yarn’s website. I think they might be an exclusive for them but I’m not certain. Gorgeous brass fittings and tightening tool in a silk wrapper for storage. They were a little sticky with cashmere but with wool and other fibers they were great. However the stickiness might have been due to me being a fairly new knitter (knitting too tightly), they were brand new and needed “seasoning” or the yarn I was using (Nordic Yarn eco cashmere) had a sticky quality itself. I’ve used them with other yarns and no issues. Worth the investment.
I adore their triangular double point needles. Fell in love with them the first time I used them and they don’t roll away! Pure luxe and fantastic tools.
Hi Michele. Thanks so much for sharing your experience of your luxury Zen rosewood interchangeable needles. So wonderful to hear how much you love them. I’ll go now and take a look. Thanks again for taking the time to comment. Cheers Jodie
Anticipating two wooden luxury interchangeable sets in the mail now. My first choice was the Addi nature olive wood, (I thought the lighter color would be best for 1st choice as I sometimes knit with dark colors) my second is the Zen Rosewood. I try to research any investments. There aren’t enough comments or reviews on the Zen! There are a lot of comments on rosewood. I’m glad that I should have both sets in my hands by the beginning of next week. I do own Chaio Goo Red Twists. Lovely, and a ‘go to’ needle. I’m excited about the premium wooden needles and expect them to be less grippy than other wooden needles! We shall soon see!
Hi Paulette. Thanks so much for sharing. That’s great to hear you love the Chiaogoo Red Twists. Once you receive your new sets and you have tried them out, I’d love to hear about your experience. Cheers Jodie
