KnitPro launches Symfonie 2 needles and hooks

KnitPro International has launched Symfonie 2, a redesigned knitting and crochet line built from feedback from makers in more than 85 countries. The collection adds permanent laser markings, flexible cables and FSC-certified, plastic-free packaging as KnitPro looks to sharpen its premium tools business. Why it matters: - Symfonie 2 targets a core pain point for knitters and crocheters: tools that wear down, tangle or lose markings over time. - The launch also signals how KnitPro is tying product design to sustainability, with FSC certification and plastic-free packaging. What happened: - KnitPro International launched Symfonie 2, the next generation of its Symfonie knitting and crochet collection. - The company says the line was developed from feedback from makers worldwide. - KnitPro distributes knitting and crochet tools across more than 85 countries. - The launch was announced June 16, 2026, from Europe and the United Kingdom. The details: - Symfonie 2 uses engineered birchwood in seven colors: green, yellow, orange, red, pink, purple and blue. - The collection uses a signature chevron pattern across the line. - KnitPro says the birchwood tools are warm, strong, silky-smooth and gentle on hands and yarn. - Size markings are laser-etched and designed to stay permanent and readable. - Ultra-Flex stainless steel cables are designed to bend and move without kinking. - A 360° swivel mechanism is meant to reduce tangling during use. - An invisible joint between needle and cable is designed to create a seamless yarn flow. - The line is FSC certified and packaged in fully plastic-free, biodegradable materials. - The Symfonie 2 knitting range includes single-pointed needles, double-pointed needles, fixed circulars and interchangeable circular needles. - Knitting needle sizes run from 2mm (US 0) to 12mm (US 17). - The knitting range also includes eight sets. - The crochet range includes single-ended hooks and Tunisian interchangeable hooks. - Crochet hook sizes run from 2mm to 12mm. - The crochet lineup also includes a Tunisian crochet hook set. Between the lines: - KnitPro is positioning Symfonie 2 as a maker-led refresh rather than a simple style update. - The emphasis on durable markings, smoother cables and packaging suggests the company is competing on both usability and sustainability. - Ms. Suman, KnitPro’s general manager of marketing, said maker feedback shaped choices from color to long-session comfort. What’s next: - KnitPro is directing buyers to its Symfonie 2 product page for more information: More information . - The company is also promoting the launch across its social channels on LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and TikTok. The bottom line: - Symfonie 2 is KnitPro’s bid to turn customer feedback into a premium tool upgrade that blends color, durability and lower-waste packaging.
