Satisfied

Just received it yesterday and quickly knitted a 5 inch adult hat. It was nice. I have a Chiagoo 5" spare kit. They are great but so sharp that I can't knit for a long time because my finger gets swollen from repeated stitches after a while. It doesn't hurt me at all, the yarn slides smoothly, the cord is fine and the price was so affordable it's nothing fancy but I like that I can see straight in. Whether the coating on these needles will wear off remains to be seen next time I'll order a set…

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Long delivery time

I'd rather believe those who say this set comes in a size 11 dammit! THIS SET DOES NOT INCLUDE SIZE 11. It is exactly the same as the picture.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons

Also, the storage case does not hold the tips of the needles in place, allowing them to slide out of position when akimbo. Then I have to sort them all again. Grrr Update: Needle tips now screw securely into cable connections. Initially, a small

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
