Like needles, sticky cables?

I took some time to write this because I wanted to try the kit first and I'm happy to report that it works great! The connections stay nice and tight. I love all the Chiaogoo needles I have and they are no different. But I did notice that the cables in this set were sticky, so I wiped them with an alcohol wipe and this weird red coating came off. The cables haven't lost color or anything and have been doing a good job ever since. I tried it on my other red laces but they rubbed themselves clean

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Concise instructions

Same as driving a covered wagon and driving a Ferrari

I was knitting with these new needles and found myself smiling from ear to ear for the sheer joy of knitting. Holy cow, these things are amazing! I had no idea I was struggling with my Susan Bates straight aluminum spokes until I tried these. Yes, they are very pointed, but I like it, especially when I'm knitting something tight and durable on purpose. When knitting loosely, I have to be careful not to lose any stitches because the yarn just flies off the needle - knitting is much faster that…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Unreliable

It's amazing how much better!

I used to knit a lot, but I have arthritis in my thumbs, which makes knitting and crocheting not very comfortable. I'm making a baby blanket right now - solid piece, thick yarn, size 15 circular needle - it will get heavy as it grows and pulls on the needle. I used bamboo but getting the stitches to move was getting harder and harder until I gave up and bought this set. Amazing difference. Seams slide easily; Cables don't bend in different directions unlike plastic cables (even in good sets…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • A bit wrinkled
