Sounds like it may be a symptom usually associated with Carpal or Cubital Tunnel Syndrome maybe? It might be worth looking these up on a reputable site like NHS Choices to compare symptoms.

Hope this helps

Yes i do too if I have been knitting, I have been told I have O.A in my thumb/wrist bones and arthralgia in my hands it gets aggravated by pressure-I cant peel veg anymore that really sets it off.

I get pins and needles quite a lot, but not just in my fingers, in all sorts of random places and at random times. Sounds like you may need to get it checked out.
