Review on ChiaoGoo 12-inch (30cm) Bamboo Dark 🧢 Patina Circular Knitting Needle US 7 (4.5mm) 2012-7 by Kim Sanchez

Revainrating 2 out of 5

undersized. Needle size US #7 4.35mm instead of 4.5mm

I recently bought this because I needed 12" #7 circular needles for a baby hat pattern. After about 1/3 of the way I was able to do that measure knitted piece accurately and it turned out to be a smaller size so I canceled the pattern size "baby" on dpns and restarted which came out almost right I just got my needle out to try boot cuffs to make and it looked small for a size 7 so I got out my caliper which I use for woodworking and measured the needles they are really small at 4.35mm but should be 4.5mm I think i will mention it for those who matter.This certainly solved the mystery of my drawing size issue.By the way all my clover needles are true to size.Not only are they smaller than the needles but they are beautifully made tet. I give 2 stars because they really should be at least the size listed.
