Terrible Needles for Arts and Crafts

After I put it to the test, I have come to the conclusion that these knitting needles are not worth the money. The bamboo material feels rough and scratchy against my fingers, making my knitting experience not enjoyable. Although they come in different sizes, they continually come apart, causing me to lose stitches. The only good thing about these needles is that they are environmentally friendly. However, I would not recommend these needles to anyone.

Pros
  • Natural bamboo material is eco-friendly and comfortable to use.
Cons
  • Useless features

I love these needles.

The first DPNs I used were aluminum. I don't recommend them unless you enjoy drawing live stitches back onto the needle after it slips and falls to the ground without warning, which is common with aluminum needles. needles.

Pros
  • Size laser engraved on each item for added convenience and easy storage.
Cons
  • Ugly packaging.

Wonderful dps

Love this DPS. They are very durable and the tips stay sharp. Great for socks and lace projects for beginners. Most recently I used them to make gansey socks using Guernsey yarn based on a pattern by Beth Brown Rensel. They came out beautiful and it was a nice knit with those DPS. A knitting colleague told me about these needles a few years ago and it was a very helpful recommendation. I usually prefer metal needles, but those DPS are amazing. They are also less expensive than others.

Pros
  • ChiaoGoo Bamboo Needles are made from Chinese Moso Bamboo, the largest and most durable bamboo of over 1000 different species; Needles with darker patina are further heat treated for a darker color (no dyes or varnishes are used for a more intense color)
Cons
  • Great price
