Review on 🧢 Susan Bates 14154 Finishing Value Pack: Assorted Knitting Needles for Precise Results by Carrie Spencer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent needle set for braiding yarn ends

I crochet and knit a lot and am always looking for handy tools. One of the things I'm scared of is tangled ends (especially when I have to string a lot of motifs together). This is my least favorite part of the project. It's even worse when I'm working with delicate yarns and threads that don't easily fit into the eye of my metal weaving needles. I bought this needle set hoping it would make the process easier - and it is. I really like that I can just thread the yarn into the eye, which is basically the whole needle minus the point. Weaving is also fairly easy when working with a size 3 or larger. Less than that and I've found that using my metal needles works best for me. I just didn't want to try and poke tiny stitches with a plastic needle. Since I usually work with thicker yarns, this is not a big problem for me. I loved the needles so much I bought a second set for my take out yarn bag and plan to add them as Christmas gifts this year. my family and friends who knit and crochet.

Pros
  • Freehand
Cons
  • Very expensive
