Good quality

I've always liked the quality of Clover products and it hasn't disappointed. I also ordered Susan Bates darning needles and I like them better just because of the higher curvature of the needles. Susan Bates isn't as well made and the threaded hole is at an odd angle making threading difficult BUT. The higher the bend, the longer and more loops you can cast on. I use it to sew yarn ends to my knits. So the more stitches you can cast on, the faster you can work, and I HATE sewing tails on.

Pros
  • High marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options

Less time and frustration

These are great for crocheters. They are very thin, needle sizes 20, 22 and 24 (the larger the number, the smaller the needle) and suitable for crocheting. To crochet with yarn, you need larger needles. You really matter. I hate working on ends and using a curved needle makes it a lot quicker and less of a hassle than trying to use a crochet hook for the same task. The small case is good. The top is bolted so it is secure. It has a small tab to remove the top after unscrewing. It's a small…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions

Like the others, the dimensions are perfect for carving.

I really want to give this product 5 stars because it's the only one I've found in this size that has a curved tip. As others have said the sizes are perfect for crocheters and I love the clover covers for them. I don't put excessive pressure on my eyes, apparently this is just a weak point of the product. I have used other straight end needles with the same eye size/thickness and have never broken a needle; and now it has happened twice. As for the product, I give the idea of the product 5…

Pros
  • Great construction
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
