Type of review

I, like any needlewoman, have a huge number of knitting needles in stock, but these are the coolest! If you haven't tried it yet, you definitely should! There are two types of knitting needles - with a curved bottom and straight. I didn’t like the curved ones, it’s not very comfortable to hold. But with a straight line - good! Spokes from good surgical steel. Durable. The tip is pointed, which makes it easier to knit with fine yarns and yarns folded into several threads - a very comfortable…

Pros
  • Light, comfortable, with a sharp tip
Cons
  • High price but worth it!

Very comfortable knitting needles. The thin tip easily picks up the loops when knitting, while not pricking the finger (as they say in some reviews). The end of the needle is thin, but not sharp. I'll show you a close-up for comparison of the tips of the knitting needles. 1.5 mm needles are the thinnest needles, but nevertheless, the tip of the needle is not sharp, it is just elongated and refined. On the left in the photo is a ChiaoGoo knitting needle, and on the right is another brand. The…

Pros
  • The ideal tip, does not prick, the cable does not crack, very plastic and always smooth
Cons
  • Not

Ideal for 2 socks with Magic Loop.

40" long perfect for knitting 2 pieces at a time, magic loop. This was my first ChiaoGoo needle and I am very happy with the quality. not attached to mine at all Knitted piece.The stitches are very flexible and as promised don't have the memory to fight it.I also like the sharper and tapered points compared to some other needles,they are easier to use without splitting the yarn randomly and making it easier threading the needle into a solid stitch. Bottom line, I highly recommend these needles.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

My favorite choice for stainless steel needles

Although I can knit with almost any needle without any problems, I prefer to knit with bamboo or wooden needles. But if I had gone with the metal option, these stainless steel ChiaoGoo Red Lace Fixed Circular Needles would be great. They are light and get warm in my hands quite quickly. The stitches slip right off the needle. Red cords are one of my favorite cords; I love her. I always keep a set of small 40 inch stainless steel needles in my back for knitting as a backup; they are a great…

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • I don't remember, but there was something

Best Knitting Sock Experience with Magic Loop

My Needle Story: I've used fancy ebony needles, the Majestic set from Knitpicks, double-pointed steel needles from Knitpicks, and cheap bamboo clover needles. The cable is a thousand times better than any other interchangeable or round cable I've tried. It's stiff enough to keep the other sock securely in the magic loop, yet easy to manipulate and position where you need it. Just real joy. And I think it looks nice too. The tips of the needles look the closest to my steel cord picks, but the…

Pros
  • Great Design
Cons
  • Crumpled Wrap
