Beautifully Crafted Bamboo Knitting Needles

I recently picked up a set of circular bamboo knitting needles for my arts and crafts projects and I'm so impressed! Based on my observations, these needles are beautifully crafted and have a unique patina finish that makes them stand out from other needles. The bamboo material also gives them a comfortable and lightweight feel. The only drawback I've noticed is that they may not be as durable as metal needles, but that's expected with any wooden needle. Overall, I highly recommend theseโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Beautifully crafted, unique patina finish, comfortable and lightweight feel.
Cons
  • May not be as durable as metal needles.

Ideal for baby hats

I got her to make newborn worsted weight caps without having to start DPN and to be honest sometimes I don't have the patience to tie a magic bow make. This is compliant. The extra short needles take a little getting used to, but I really appreciate not having to worry about tension issues, especially when knitting Fair Isle. My only wish is that they come in two larger sizes like 10 or 10.5. They feel really strong and the cords are too short to have the twisting issues that longer circularsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • ChiaoGoo products are mainly manufactured in Hangzhou, China, distributed by Troy, Michigan (USA) and follow the latest eco-friendly manufacturing processes; Most products are 100% recyclable
Cons
  • A dubious purchase for the elderly

Perfect for small projects

Smaller quality wood pins (rather than metal which I personally find too slippery) are hard to find but they are great! Be aware that the 9 inch measurement INCLUDING the needle is not just a cable measurement. Despite its small size, the cable is still flexible. It's a bit awkward at first and it definitely takes some practice to get used to the size and shape as you work, but in my opinion they're still easier to work with than a pair of garter pins. You don't have to worry about dropping itโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Handcrafted by highly skilled craftsmen
Cons
  • Delicate
