ChiaoGoo Bamboo Circular Knitting Needles Knitting & Crochet Review

Bamboo is beautiful, smooth and polished and is great for small items. It's a bit awkward to use at first, but you get used to it quickly and it's easier than working with 5 needles. I've had 9" and 16" rounds before and it's a good in-between size.

These needles are perfect. Don't be alarmed because they're wood - they're well polished and won't snag or chip, while still retaining the benefit of traction with wood (which means you can file a project and it's unlikely to falls off the needles). , as opposed to slippery metals).

I ordered these needles online rather than in the store for two reasons. First, finding the right length was difficult, and second, when I found them, they cost a lot more than Revain. I wasn't familiar with this brand but decided to try them as they were bamboo needles and I'm happy to report that they are just as good as my other bamboo needles.
