Clover 3016/16-09 Takumi Bamboo 16-Inch Circular Knitting Needles, Size 9 Review

I use spare needles for large projects but they are not 16" long so I like these needles for small items like hats and sleeves, Clover needles are always great - Bamboo and cord connections are always smooth.

I have a lot of Clover needles. straight and round They have excellent circus affiliations and are flexible. The warmth of the wood helps my fingers as I have arthritis and don't get as tired from metal needles. No burrs, very smooth surface and dimensionally stable.

I love bamboo needles - yarn tends to stick to bamboo with a light touch, so if you're new to knitting it's great because you lose fewer stitches. I've been knitting for a few years and I still dislike using metal needles because the yarn slips off too easily. I have Clover Round and Double Point in various sizes and have always been very pleased with the quality of each pair. FYI for beginner knitters, several reviewers have complained that the length includes the needles and not just the cord
