> 24 hourI did a lot of knitting as a preteen and after over 50 years, Im back into it! I am very pleased with these needles. They are convenient and very easy to use. The sharpness of the needles is perfect for me. The carrying case is precious and well-made. I would definitely buy again!

> 24 hourBest knitting needles Ive ever used. Lightweight and comfortable. Everything you need is in one neat little pouch. Needles are conveniently sorted and there are three lengths of cables, perfect for most projects. Best of all, the cables DO NOT CURL! No more wrestling with twisting cables, they stay straight and flat. Yarn slides smoothly over needles and connections without any catching or snagging, and connections are quick and secure. Comes with little extras like markers, and needle size chart. Is well worth the investment; makes knitting a real pleasure.

> 24 hourMy favorite needles by far. I also own the Denise (plastic) and Takumi (bamboo) interchangeable sets, and really like them, but they just dont measure up to these. Im not sure why all types of yarn glide so nicely on them, but they do and it makes straight knitting a pleasure; and if youre doing something tricky these needles make you feel like a pro! (Maybe a knitting surgeon?) My hands prefer the longer tips. My bamboo needles are the shorter length and they end up feeling like theyre digging into the middle of my palms after an intensive round of knitting. Unfortunately the longer tips make it impossible to have the shorter (16) circular lengths used for caps, etc. which means I may eventually decide to get the shorter tips for those projects. Ive NEVER had them come loose from the cord - AS LONG AS I USE THE T-PIN to tighten. However if I get in a hurry and dont take that additional step they do start to loosen. The ability to run a lifeline is great - just remember that running it through any markers you are using isnt going to work. The cords are definitely the most compliant of any I own - you just forget they are there. Showing what a fickle fool I am, I only appreciate how wonderful they are when Im using one of my other sets.

> 24 hourWell worth the cost. I have several brands of interchangeable and these are among my favorites. The cables are unbeatable and unique; will never twist or tangle.

> 24 hourAs a beginning knitter someone told me to buy these but i didnt listen. Insstead i bought a sample pack of another brand of interchangeable needles that had both wood and metal tips....i quickly figured out i prefered the metal round tips and saved up to get these.

> 24 hourI got these needles at a great sale price and they arrived very quickly. Very happy with purchase! I did a lot of research and finally settled on these as I love their fixed circulars. There were pluses and minuses with each brand as well as personal preferences but the Chaiogoo are perfect for me.

> 24 hourI would have given this a 5 star however the medium length cord keeps coming loose on one of the small needles no matter how tight I start it with. This has happened on 3 of the small size needles. Paid too much $ for this to be happening.

> 24 hourThe screw together join is seamless in feel. Im not sure about interchangeables (yet). Ive had the needle come completely unscrewed (with a different brand!). So, Im cautious... so far no problems.

> 24 hourThese are the best! Ive tried a few other interchangeable sets--including Knitters Pride, once my go-to *non*-interchangeable needle--and they do not compare. I used to hate Addi Turbos, i.e., any steel needle, due to their hardness and slipperness. But Chiaogoo interchangeables receive such glowing reviews here I thought Id bite the bullet and try them out. Now Im a convert!
