The needle is redish orange. If looks are a concern, be forwarned the needle itself doesnt actually illuminate at night, like the needles on your car dash board typically do. The light that shines through the numbers at night is the o ly thing that illuinates where the needle is, and for that reason I was dissatisfied with this guage and purchased a different one.

looking at the Equus web site, it shows 'red'. I doubt if purple is an option.

There is definately a needle. However, its the most ouchless needle I have ever used.

This one has four needles instead of two. This kit also has 180 yds of thread vs 30 yards of thread in the other one.

It is actually a diamond needle, according to an e-mail reply I received from Numark.

That was me. It looks cream and brown on website, but it's brown and light purple.

The one I got looks exactly like the picture of the purple one on the website.

I found it by mistake. I didn't know there would be a needle in the kit. It's wrapped in plastic. I suggest looking very thoroughly through everything to see if you can find it. I never used the needle provided and just used one I like to use. Hope that helps.

It is indeed red. I ordered two of these on two separate occasions. Both were red.

We got the purple case; sorry, cannot advise on color of the red case. The purple, however, is a true purple.

Yes, that looks like IT! I have the same one. if it's red it is the only one.

I see why you are confused. The photo shown here is definitely the knitting needles described but the photo on the main page is a flower loom.. I have the crochet hooks in the same type of case shown here. They are wonderful. Am assuming the knitting needles will be similar.

It does have a needle and plays beautifully. Sorry, I don't know the answer to the second part of the question.

Red. However beware before buying. Read all comments first. Warranty stinks.

The one I received was purple and looked just like the picture. Hope that helps.

I always identify purple as a dark grey purple. This is a reddish purple. I identify light purple as lavender.

I have not noticed that issue, but havew been very dissapointed with the overall performance of this unit and have not used it enough to experience a needle issue.

The image is of a purple bottle, but when this item arrived, it was in its usual red bottle.
