Clover 8 Takumi Circular 16 Size Bamboo Knitting Needle, Brown, Clear

Christmas gift for my daughter in law.

I just learned to knit, and the only other needles I have are the cheapie aluminum kind from WalMart. I wanted to get needles that would be small and unobtrusive so I can knit on the bus on my way to school, as well as being attractive and soft in the hand. The product was as advertised, shipped in a timely manner, and overall very good quality. I have knit a few scarves so far and I havent had any problems with the plastic connection between the needles coming apart - its pretty well attached. In addition, the needles are smooth and evenly-sized. I really look forward to using these for more projects.

Bamboo needles and hooks are wonderful!

These are servicable needles, but VERY grippy and the needle/cable join isnt totally smooth.

Happy, they were shipped really fast.

LOVE the Takumi Bamboo needles! My preference is always Takumi Bamboo!

These needles are a great value and work great.

This needle is a good value. The only reason that I didnt give it five stars is that some yarns do not slide well on the shaft and cord. However, that is a plus for slippery yarns. Our needlework group knits hundreds of hats each year; so the 16 needles get a good workout.

I love clover products for knitting! I have never been let down! They cling to the thread more so if you like how the aluminum slides off easy you may have a hard time with the bamboo. Personally I like them both.

Great
