Description of 40-inch Circular Knitting Needles - Rocket Turbo Lace Blue Cord, US 08 (5.0mm) Size - Bundle with 10 Artsiga Crafts Stitch Markers

BUNDLE: includes 1 addi Knitting Needle Circular Turbo Rocket Lace White-Bronze Blue Cord 40 inch (100cm) Size US 08 (5.0mm) and 10 Artsiga Crafts Stitch Markers; each Artsiga Crafts locking stitch marker measures approximately .9" x .5" closed and comes in fun and bright assorted colors. CONSTRUCTION: addi Turbo Rocket Lace circular needles were created for precise knitting and perfect for lace, sock and all-around knitting given the aggressively tapered all-brass tips with white bronze finish and the Skacel exclusive ultra-pliable blue cords and snag-free joins. WHITE-BRONZE FINISH: Original Nickel-plated finish has been replaced by white bronze finish which offers a brighter appearance and incomparable zip but without some of the skin sensitivity concerns associated with nickel plating; white bronze is extremely resistant to tarnish and corrosion making addi circular needles even better than before. PRODUCT AUTHENTICITY: Item is designed and manufactured in Germany by addi for the North American markets designated by the Skacel package logo and Exclusive Blue Cords and ultra-pliable blue cords.

The tips are not sharp enough like other Addi needles

The tips are not as sharp as I expected, they are very comfortable and light, 16 inches is perfect for knitting hats, the length from The shank is very decent and comfortable. I have several other sets of genuine addi needles, they are not the same as the other sets. I will not recommend them for the very experienced avid knitter. only learn. Nothing for experienced knitters.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • There are new competitors

Huge improvement over the old Addi needles

Great tips, yarn slides easily. Always check your handpieces for burs during the return period. Also remember that with these needles you will get a thinner gauge when knitting close to the point of the points compared to Addi needles of the same size which have less sharp points. These tips aren't as sharp as Signature Needle Arts rivets, but I feel sharp enough if you need something with a fine point (I don't use them for fine gossamer point, in which case I would recommend the Signature…

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • No power

turbo legal!

MUST BUY! I first bought regular Addi circular needles (blue cord without the rocket) and oh my god it makes an amazing difference! For the record, I'm working on a 60 inch blanket in 5 gauge superfine merino wool yarn (the cow's sugarbush and Beaufort lizard in the photo, by the way) and while 13 gauge needles are recommended for the yarn, I don't want to have too much space between the larger pearl stitches, use #11. On these original Addi #11 circular needles I get 4-5 stitches per square…

Pros
  • Practical item
Cons
  • So far, so good
