Great sentence! Highly recommended.

I love them! First, the case is amazing. I love it. I also have a number of interchangeable Symfonie components, but the case they ended up in isn't as practical as this one. Everything is fully labeled making it easy to keep organized. There's a zip pocket for your concepts - and it pretty much has everything you need. Also, the needle key is a T-pin, so you never have to look for a special key when you need to change needles. Sizes are also marked on the needles so you don't have to worry about double checking with the needle. Getting started with Gauge.Lifelines is very easy, but you should add a needle threader to your brainstorming scheme just because threading it through that little hole can be frustrating at first. I found I learned it after a few tries. If you are used to knitting on wood, especially laminated wood like Symfonie's, these needles will be very slippery at first and you will feel like the yarn will just fall off. needles. I had to adjust the tension to knit them, but luckily I started with a fairly easy project that was just rib, so I could easily reset it if my stitches came loose. Also note that unless you sew the cord or use guards, you can't just fold your project and put it in your bag. My knitting just slipped off my needles! My fault of course! These needles shine especially when knitting fine with smaller needle sizes. The needles feel much safer in my hands than the same size wood and they just poke through the yarn. Also, it is much easier to knit two or more stitches together. The braids are lightly textured but very strong. I'm using them in a magic loop right now and haven't had any problems with them. I've read some other reviews where people said they screwed up, but I don't have this problem at all. Also, the cord is fine and won't twist or bend on your hand or interfere with knitting. If it makes sense! All in all a very good buy. I am very happy with them!
