Hi there!

A pair of needles are treated as two items, albeit small ones.

If you would like a pair of non-enchanted knitting needles with plastic caps, you could buy a pair of Masterwork Dehlar needles for 450 GP. Alternatively, you could buy an enchanted pair of masterwork Damascus needles for the same price.

The difference is the metal quality - any higher than the pair mentioned above takes you to just beyond what you can afford.

Please let me know what you'd like to do!
