Probably, all knitters have many different knitting needles and hooks for their favorite pastime. Today I will tell you about Gamma bamboo knitting needles, which I got not so long ago. I used to have wooden needles, but I didn't like using them because they were difficult to knit with. The loops did not slide well on them, although outwardly the knitting needles seemed smooth. But somehow I tried to knit on bamboo needles with a friend and it turned out that this was something completely different. The needles are light and very pleasant to the touch, warm and feel not as hard as metal ones. Finally a friend gave them to me. These knitting needles are also interesting because they are on the tube and detachable. This is what the needles look like. The surface of the spokes is perfectly ground and polished. Very comfortable ends - perfectly and without unnecessary movements they pick up both the loops and the thread, but do not prick the fingers. The transition from the point to the normal thickness is very smooth. The junction of the needle and the tube is also perfectly flat, the loops do not linger there. I am now knitting a big thing on these needles - a dress. Thanks to this design, I do not have to hold the entire canvas in my hands, it lies quietly on my knees. Since the needles are short, it is not very convenient to cast on them, for this I used simple aluminum knitting needles. However, I did not like knitting on them, the loops did not slide well, they had to be moved by hand all the time. Perhaps it's all about the threads, I have them boucled. But when I switched to bamboo needles, everything became easier. Their surface is so smooth that the slightest movement is enough, and all the loops move in the right direction. I donβt know what the tube is made of, but the loops just slide along it. As a result, the process is fast and stress-free. Here is my knitting, and next to it are aluminum knitting needles, which were once my favorite ones. Here, another advantage of bamboo knitting needles immediately catches the eye - they do not bend, while metal ones are not quite even. I wanted to buy long bamboo knitting needles, as it is not always convenient to knit on short ones. But I especially want to buy thick knitting needles, because they will be light, despite the size. So I advise everyone who knits to look at bamboo knitting needles. They are very comfortable, it is easy to knit on them, since the hands are not tense, and there is almost no need to make extra movements.
