Review on 🧢 ChiaoGoo Circular 9 inch (23cm) Bamboo Dark Patina Knitting Needle - US 7 (4.5mm) - 2009-7 by Shantel Griffin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ideal for baby hats

I got her to make newborn worsted weight caps without having to start DPN and to be honest sometimes I don't have the patience to tie a magic bow make. This is compliant. The extra short needles take a little getting used to, but I really appreciate not having to worry about tension issues, especially when knitting Fair Isle. My only wish is that they come in two larger sizes like 10 or 10.5. They feel really strong and the cords are too short to have the twisting issues that longer circulars have. The points are quite sharp. Not super sharp, but works. Definitely recommend.

Pros
  • ChiaoGoo products are mainly manufactured in Hangzhou, China, distributed by Troy, Michigan (USA) and follow the latest eco-friendly manufacturing processes; Most products are 100% recyclable
Cons
  • A dubious purchase for the elderly
