ChiaoGoo Red Lace Circular 32 inch Stainless Steel US 1.5 Knitting Needle - High-Quality 2.5mm 7032-1.5 Review

I've only been knitting for a few years, but have quickly mastered the type of needles I prefer. I tried several brands before discovering ChiaoGoo Red Lace circular needles.

My favorite needles right away. The needles themselves are light weight, lighter than Addy's but not at all flimsy The tips and length are amazingly smooth Has worked great so far with mohair fabrics as well as basic wool fingers (4 plies) for a doll sweater The cable is a real plus with these needles This is a metal braided cable attached to pins with a slick plastic coating on top. SUPER flexible! Resists the urge to form fancy loops in storage and is malleable enough for the "magic loop"…
