Review on Clover Takumi Pointed Knitting Needles by Kristen Reid

Revainrating 5 out of 5

great for socks

I've reviewed Klee bamboo pins before and they turned out to be the best. These are 5 inch needles that are good for socks. They're long enough to fit the loops of a medium-sized sock, yet short enough that the ends don't get in the way. Probably best suited for thin sock yarns. When knitting socks, it is better to use 6 or 7 inch needles. I've even knitted the ends of hats with 5 inch needles and it works. In 40 years of knitting I have collected products of different lengths, so I choose the length for the project. In terms of quality, Clover is the best and I have several that are decades old and still use them. The needles arrived quickly, well packaged and undamaged.

Pros
  • impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging
