Review on 🧢 ChiaoGoo Red Circular 12 inch (30cm) Stainless Steel Knitting Needle US 5 (3.75mm) - Versatile, Precise Craft Tool by Jessica Lewis

Revainrating 3 out of 5

I have standard length ChiaoGoo needles and I love them. Needles are great

Wanted to try 12 inch sock needles as I don't care about DPN and am so clumsy with the magic loop until I've worked an inch or two. I have normal length ChiaoGoo needles. and I think it's great, the point of the needle is great but I'm still trying to get used to the short cord - the needle isn't to blame I can learn how to hold it properly without shrinking. I've heard from many others that working with short cords takes time as there is a learning curve. At this point I'm not thrilled with the slight bend between the needle and cord as it seems to hold the yarn, but it could be because I'm still learning to work with small needles. I've moved forward and I'm not struggling as much anymore, but not where I want to be yet. I'm glad I bought them and with more practice I'm sure I'll get to the point where I can fly through sock knitting.

Pros
