Case for a large set and half empty - returning

Send these back. Very disappointed as I expected the case to only fit this size 2-8 set (similar to the Twists Minis case). Instead, it's a large case for a set of sizes 2-15, with half the slots empty. Will be disappointed every time I open a case!

Pros
  • Brilliantly made
Cons
  • Something is wrong

The Best Circular Needles

ChiaoGoo Circular Needles are the best I've tried. I have a few other spare sets but I gave this one a try and am not disappointed. They have the best cable connections and the needle tips are smooth. I had a small set because I still mainly use needles smaller than size 8. They come with three cable lengths and accessories in a case. I love these circular needles!

Pros
  • Stylish and Modern Design
Cons
  • Some Cons

A pleasure to knit these needles with

I've been using Addi Turbo fixed length for years but got into knitting a little later and it's the brand my local knit shop sells and I love they also. like Addis. The connection is smooth, the metal tips are smooth and allow the yarn to slide easily, making knitting very fast. I bought a lot of individual spade lugs and cable sizes, but in the end I decided to get a set so I didn't have to run to the store for every new project. I bought a full set of 5" tips for most projects and a small set

Pros
  • Lovely looking
Cons
  • Long wait

Great needle set. I use them every day.

Superb needle set. I use these needles almost every day. Large selection of needle and cable sizes. This length is great for hats since you can make a 16 inch circle out of it, but is great for any project that requires a sharp needle. I rotate cables between all my other Chiagoo sets. The beautiful case offers space for these needles and more, as well as space for cables and accessories. Highly recommended.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • I don't remember

Delighted with my purchase!

I am very happy with this purchase! I've bought nickel-plated Knit Picks and Knitters Pride sets as spares in the past (and I have several complete sets of each), but somehow I've never been able to find the needles I need. I recently bought my first ChiaoGoo Nickel Fixed Circular Needle to replace one of the Knit Picks that broke in the middle of a project and I just fell in love with cords. It took me a few rows to get used to how the needle tips feel compared to what I've used before, but…

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Obsolete

Needles shorter than 4 " were causing cramps

I've been using the Clover Takumi replacement kit for a while now, but have long wanted to switch to a metal kit. After some thought and research, I settled on the 4" Chiaogoo replacement needles. By themselves, these needles are shorter than 4 inches and give me cramps like hell. When it's connected to a string, the length of the metal reaches 4 inches, but that little bit of length lost in the needle is really quite tactile in the hands. The needles are about 3.75" long. You can see in the…

Pros
  • Performing well
