Review on Get Crafting with Knitter's Pride KP110604 Karbonz Double Pointed Needles Socks Kit by Doris Tran

These are my first DPNs so I have no comparison but overall I really like them. I haven't had any issues with the needles slipping out of the loops, but the loops also move smoothly over the needles. I definitely prefer metal for circular needles because I like the stitches to slide very easily. I HATE bamboo for most knitting. I think these Karbonz are the perfect compromise between the two for DPNs that I don't want to be as slippery as my circular needles. not very even. It's not enough for the yarn to actually hook, but it's enough for me to notice it as I run my stitches through this transition. Also, after completing just one project in one of the sets, the sizes of the needles printed on the needles have already worn off significantly. I think after 2 or 3 more uses they will be unreadable. I wish they were engraved somehow. This isn't a problem, especially as the case they come in is quite nice and well sized, but it's annoying.
