Fine gauge pivoted latch needles having a shank portion, a hook portion and a cheek portion adjacent to the hook portion, a first slot extending through the cheek portion and in which the latch is pivotally supported, a second slot extending through the shank portion in continuation of the first slot, the width of the second slot being less than the width of the first slot. The bottoms of the slots are curvalinear. The combined slots serving to make the extended side walls thereof resilient thereby to absorb the shocks and to dampen the vibrations to which the needles are subjected in use.
