ChiaoGoo Red Lace Circular 16 inch (40cm) Stainless Steel Knitting Needle Size US 8 (5mm) 7016-8

Was sent the wrong needles. I opened the package and noticed the needles were too long to be 16, but the sticker said that it was 16. I peeled back the sticker and noticed that these were really 32 US size 7! Was totally disappointed. Just be warned you might not get what you order when you order these.

Smooth movement of yarn over the needle. Sturdy cord joining the needles. Very pleased.

Love these knitting needles. First time I’ve used this brand and they are the best.

Love the product. Packaging was terrible. I love these needles, they are smooth have a beautiful join and the cord is wonderfully flexible.

smooth and easy to knit with. Good quality

Im a novice knitter and these needles are quite easy to use. Great quality, durable and perfect size for beanies!

I have been a knitter for many years and these needles are the best! Smooth cable joins (very important if you are a lace creator), sharp points, flexible cables. And the price is reasonable!

The package says size 8, but the ChiaGoo stainless steel knitting needles that I received are etched with a size 3 on the actual needle. I have never had this happen before, so Im not sure why there is this discrepancy. I wanted another size 8 of circular needles so that I could work on my sweater sleeves simultaneously. However, I think it would be too much of a hassle to return these for actual size 8 needles in a 16 size, so I will keep them and hopefully use them for some other project. That being said, ChiaGoo circulars have become virtually the only knitting needles that I will use. I am accumulating quite a set and use them often. They are very high quality and fly through the stitches wonderfully, no snags.

I am inexperienced working with circular needles, I only attempted to do it once, and the brand of circulars that I purchased ended up being a tangled nightmare, I threw out the needles, and the project too! So I decided to try again, I was very reluctant to try a brand I hadnt heard of. Reviews helped me decide to give these a try and I am very happy that I did! SOOO easy to work with, they do not get twisted up and pull against you as you try to work around your row. I love them. I am buying more for different projects now. One reviewer pointed out that these have a sharper point on them than regular knitting needles because they are for lace. I am not doing lace, but the points are good for me, and I use a thimble on my finger that I use to push my stitch off the needle with. I am very happy!!!

Smooth metal, sharp pointy needles. The wire is smoothly connected to the needles, no catching of stitches on the knitting project. Can recommend!
