Yes!  Of all the metals that are used for knitting needles, stainless steel is one of the very best options.  It’s durable, and doesn’t cause allergic reactions in most people.  It also has the best slick surface of all the other metal knitting needle types I have tested.  The Mindful Collection steel knitting needles are the best metal needles.  They have all of the ideal features a good knitting needle should have.
