📍 CLOVER 3012-07 Takumi 13-Inch Single Point Needles, Size 7 Review

I love these needles, they are smooth and the yarn glides on them so well without being slippery or sliding off the end of the needle. They are great for my hands as I have arthritis and carpal tunnel syndrome. The hands do not get tired and do not hurt. I will never use any other needle again.

At first I was skeptical when I was told that wooden knitting needles are easier to knit, but now I prefer wooden knitting needles to metal knitting needles. It also reduces static shock and I can knit quite thin with it. I'm just learning bamboo stitch and it's pretty easy to correct mistakes with this set of needles.

I am a beginner in knitting. I didn't want metal because I wasn't sure I wanted the seams to come apart. It's definitely better in that regard. However, they are long for a beginner knitting a scarf - I did not think about it. I would go for shorter ones if you are a beginner and want a scarf or hat to work flat. I was disappointed with the clutch and did a little research. Beeswax (I had some for another purpose) or another worked VERY well to make them slippery enough but not too slippery…
