They break. Jun 06, 2009
By Chicago Scientist This is my second purchase from this manufacturer - I bought the straight needles and was very satisfied with my purchase. They weren't quite as nice as Clover bamboo needles, but for what I paid for the Stanwood set, I was satisfied. Then I bought this set of circulars, and my money went down the toilet. Within a few weeks of knitting on the circulars, one of the needles separated from the cord. I attribute this to poor construction. These circulars consist of two bamboo needles joined by a hollow plastic tube and a little bit of glue. The hollow plastic tube separated from one of the needles, so I glued it. I repeated this process about four times (and with more than one needle size) before I gave up and threw the needles into my bottom drawer. It's irritating to have your needles break, but it's even more irritating to drop stitches on your project as the needles fail. Instead of putting $25 into this set of circulars, try to save up $50 more and go with an interchangeable set that is well-designed and will last. (Knit Picks' Harmony set was a great buy for me.)

circular needles Feb 08, 2009
By Adrienne Mueller these are awesome! they are so smooth and sooo much better than metal or plastic needles. they don't tear the yarn like metal or feel funny like plastic. and, the huge pack is such an incredible deal. they feel really nice to knit with because they are super smooth and warm up in your hands as you knit with them. the only problem is that because some of the needles are so tiny and thin, you have to be really really careful where you leave them so as not to step on them and break them

Nice starter set. Nov 11, 2010
By Trudy's Adobe I am pretty pleased with this set; the wood is definitely 'rough' compared to the other smooth wooden needles I have. The numbers are faint and difficult to see for someone over 50.

poor knitting needles Feb 12, 2011
By Dizzy D These needles are not much good for knitting. The plastic that joins the two bamboo ends stick to the wool and does not allow the knitted wool to pass easily along. When you try to gather the work and pass it along the join between bamboo and plastic bends, and makes ongoing, fast, easy work impossible.

Great Value! Dec 10, 2010
By L. Obermiller
"Granny"
The only complaint I have about these is that they have a slight bump were the actual needle attaches to the plastic. It's no big deal you just need to keep your tension loose and if your using a yarn that snags easily, make sure you take your time to push it across.
