Addi CraSy Trio or FlexiFlips

[WeeBizzom]

Does anyone know whether Addi CraSy Trio and Addi FlexiFlips are the same, just with different names? Or is there a difference? From what I can see, they look the same, but CraSy Trio are in the UK and FlexiFlips are in the US. I quite like the look of them, but it would be good to know what I am buying.

Same thing, marketed with different names for here and abroad.

Sleeves of baby cardigans, jumpers, baby socks are so much easier with them. The best price is from Woolstack.

5xhappy Thank you, I will have a look. I am always interested in a bargain

I have been a devoted fan of DPNs for years, and I still don't really like circulars. Someone said using DPNs was like wrestling a porcupine - well, using circulars is, to me, like wrestling a porcupine plus a herd of snakes (or whatever the collective noun for snakes is)! These look like the best of both worlds - fingers crossed.

Most recently I used a set for making a stuffed baby zebra and it was way easier than previous toy attempts with DPNs.

I received 2 sets of Addi CraSy Trio needles when I ordered two size 6 (with 24" cables) Addis from Amazon. I was quite surprised when these tiny needles arrived. Rather than hassle with a return, I just kept them. Since they're size 6, I can't really use them for socks, but I do use them to knit the tiny arms of bears for the Mother Bear Project. I've become quite fond of them.

Interesting - I had no idea they made them that big!
