Review on Set Of 15 Circular Bamboo Knitting Needles By JubileeYarn, Size 24 Inches For Natural Texture And Ease Of Use by Christi Lewis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great value! good for me

These needles are as advertised. They were not quite as smooth as my major brand needles, so I put a little lemon oil on them and rubbed them against each other [like you do with chopsticks] and voila - can't tell the difference from the more expensive brand in smoothness. The cords are "stickier" than other brands - I plan to try using a little powder to see if that smooths out the flow of the yarn. I have noticed some of the points are more "rounded" than others. I may take fine sandpaper to one to test if I can sharpen those points. Overall a great value for someone who likes to have a complete needle wardrobe to take up new projects spontaneously. Fast delivery.

Pros
  • The bamboo material does not conduct heat, making it comfortable to hold even during longer knitting sessions
Cons
  • The circular shape may make it more difficult to measure gauge accurately
