🧶 ChiaoGoo TWIST Shorties Combo Packs - US Size 3 (3.25 mm) Review

This is my second twist size that I have bought. They are excellent for knitting small diameter items such as B. the cuffs of a children's sweater. I found it easier to use a longer needle on my right hand and a shorter one on my left. With my arthritis I find 2 shorts together too small to hold comfortably.

Chiaogoo are by far my favorite needles. They made knitting socks a dream. I disagree with the review that the cable is too small. I thought so too at first, but they are only so small because of the small size of the tip. Suitable for small loops, especially for socks. You just have to remember to "stretch" the stitches on the needle before sending them onto the line. Delivery was quick and the order was spot on. I would order again.

I have several sets of Chiaogoo replacement needles and love them for their ease of use. This combination of needles is a challenge even for me. The cord itself is so thin that after knitting, the loops are distorted, and then the loop expands to accommodate the next loop. The ridge over which the stitch has to go is not smooth and at best makes the knitted fabric uneven. The needle connections are so tiny that you can't switch to a blue line set to make knitting easier, which is a shame…
