发明名称 Bendable Straight Knitting Needle With Ergonomic Benefit
摘要 A bendable straight knitting needle consisting of three parts (1,2,3) that provides ergonomic benefit by enabling bending of the needle during stitch/loop creation by the knitter typically done with two knitting needles, one in each hand. The addition of a bendable portion to the standard conventional straight knitting needle would allow flexible knitting motion with enhanced comfort and better ease of knitting in a tight space.
