Review on HiyaHiya Circular Knitting Needle HISTCIR9 2 5 by Nicole Mcleod

I bought a set of ChiaoGoo red 9 inch (23 cm) stainless steel circular knitting needles; Size US 2 (2.75mm) 6009-2 when I had trouble knitting brioche socks and liked them. I found the 9 inch versions of the HiyaHiya on sale at my local store so I chose a few other sizes (US 3 - US 6). Differences between ChiaoGoo and HiyaHiya: - The ChiaoGoo Red's tips are sharper (as I expected since they relate to the "red" line). - Smoother connection between needle and cord on the ChiaoGoo Red. Plastic Coated Steel Coated ChiaoGoo.-- HiyaHiya's needles are about 2/10 inch shorter than ChiaoGoo's. When knitting several pairs of socks, the connection looks normal.
