Dowels for knitting needles

It is sad to say but by supplier for dowels is not making dowels for medical health  reasons. Dowels on demand has made the best exotic dowels for me for 3 years now.


So I have been hunting for a new supplier. I found this site

and they have cool knobs for the ends

good price.
I will tell you how I like the needles

Here is a chart for sizing needles
