This is clearly USED!

I was expecting a new product but it was opened with obvious signs of use. The upper part of the teeth is scratched, as is the handle. I would give 5 stars if it was new, that's what I paid for. It will take longer than I need to get it back. The product really works. It's well designed. I'm just disappointed they didn't send me a new one.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Disappear

Not what I was hoping for

Product exactly as described, well made and easy to learn. Although it wasn't a win for me. My daughter, my oldest granddaughter and I all knit or crochet and I wanted my youngest granddaughter to join the cause. This knitter, rightly called "little one", can only handle fine yarn and knit a cord with it. requires a lot of patience. I admire people who have managed to do this. We found it tedious and thankless. Maybe I should have chosen a much bigger one.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons

It could be better.

Well made, attractive, durable, comfortable to hold, but there are better models. I bought both small and medium. None of them allow me to use bulkier yarn. The pins are too short. There are other themes (also available through Revain) that are easier to use. After Susan Bates' experience, I went back to the Revain and bought one that has 8 pins on one end and 6 pins on the smaller end. This construction allows the use of both thin and bulky yarns. The needles have grooves to allow the metal…

Pros
  • High marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
