Customer Reviews

A useful kit, but I prefer to use regular needles.
My boyfriend bought this for me as I never had the right needles for the project (we all know how frustrating that is!). Now, I pretty much have all the right needles, but I don't really enjoy knitting with them. These needles are plastic, which is good because if you like to knit on the plane, theoretically you can take them on board. I haven't tried this yet, however, as I fear that they will still make me throw them away for some ridiculous reason (like threatening the pilot the I'll knit him a cheesy Christmas sweater or some itchy socks). I personally prefer metal needles and I find that these tips are a little too blunt and the smaller ones are a little bendy, which I don't like so much. The thing that bothers me the most is that the cords are pretty thick and inflexible and if you are knitting with a small gauge needle the yarn just doesn't slide around on the cable very well. The yarn also gets caught on the connectors, which is really irritating. I have to constantly stop and go through the process of pushing all the stitches around to create some slack. Bottom line: I am glad I have them if I want to start a new project right away, but I often find myself buying a set of metal ones and using them instead, thus defeating the purpose of the set.

I have a love hate relationship with these
I have had my set for a year and at first I loved them, but that was before I started knitting on the smaller needles. If you are using anything above a 7 these work fantastically. You can make the cord quite short or really long. The plastic is a good balance between slick and not so the yarn moves over nicely but not sliding everywhere like on some metal needles. However, like I said if you want to knit on needles 6 and below, buy those elsewhere. It doesn't work at all because the needles are almost the same thickness as the cord and does not really slide well on it taking twice as long to finish a project then it would on a good set of regular circular needles.

great set!
I got this set for Christmas and as a new knitter (less than a year) I found them to be absolutely wonderful. I don't really understand people's complaints; I've never had a problem sliding my work from one end to the other, the yarn never gets caught, it is so easy to detach the needles and the case is light weight. I carry it with me almost everywhere. It's also great to have the ability to close off a piece and use the needles for something else. You can also make longer lengths by using the connectors to attach the wires together. overall, a great set!
