What would be a tight grain wood. I would be turning wood knitting needles
for my wife and her friends. Something that would not catch on the yarn.

Any of the fruit woods, cherry, pear, apple. They are favoried for the small,
mechanical parts used in musical instruments, too. Also hard maple, willow, and
rosewood. Stay away from the 'furniture' woods, walnut and oak. Dan
