Review on 🧢 Celley 36 Pcs Smooth Bamboo Knitting Needles Set - 18 Sizes US 0 to US 15: Perfect for Knitting Enthusiasts! by Linda Diaz

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Decent value though.

Priced to match this needle group. is a worthy value. However, they are not very well made. The 13/9mm size I received was so rough on the ends that it couldn't be used. When I tried to insert them into the yarn they immediately got caught on the fibers. I couldn't make a single stitch without snapping the thread and I'm 100% sure the splinters would have gotten into my fingers too. I had to sand them down before I could use them. First with 150 grit to smooth out the imperfections, then with 1500 grit for polishing. after that they were fine again. I've been knitting for years, so I knew they wouldn't be great for the price, but I expected them to be usable without having to "finish" them myself. I bought these for my daughter who is learning to knit and so far they fit her. I will keep my 150 and 1500 grit sandpaper in the needle pack so I can repair the needles if different sizes need to be used. propensity to grind needles as needed to make them usable then this purchase will not disappoint. If you are a beginner knitter who wants to be able to pick up your needles and work on your project, you can spend a little more and get a better product. I gave this product 3 stars for the number of pairs of needles. What do you get for the price and since they are on Revain I got them surprisingly quickly.

Pros
  • Highly renewable bamboo has become one of the most popular knitting materials due to its warm and earthy feel in your hands and its unique combination of calmness, strength and flexibility
Cons
