Wonderful dps

Love this DPS. They are very durable and the tips stay sharp. Great for socks and lace projects for beginners. Most recently I used them to make gansey socks using Guernsey yarn based on a pattern by Beth Brown Rensel. They came out beautiful and it was a nice knit with those DPS. A knitting colleague told me about these needles a few years ago and it was a very helpful recommendation. I usually prefer metal needles, but those DPS are amazing. They are also less expensive than others.

Pros

ChiaoGoo Bamboo Needles are made from Chinese Moso Bamboo, the largest and most durable bamboo of over 1000 different species; Needles with darker patina are further heat treated for a darker color (no dyes or varnishes are used for a more intense color)

Cons
