Clover Takumi Bamboo Circular 24-Inch Knitting Needles, Size 4

its very light, comfortable with hands make knitting so enjoyable, will purchase again

Clover circular needles are the best. You cant go wrong. Theyre more expensive than other ones you can find online but theyre smooth and the yarn just flows better. Always check that the length and size is what your pattern calls for.

Am always pleased with cover needles.

I bought these for a young girl who is learning to knit. This brand of bamboo needles are the only ones I like. Amazing how a quality needle makes a difference on how easy it is to knit. Also local craft stores carry this brand but the length of cord is too long. Thank you Amazon for coming through for me once again.

Not all bamboo needles are the same. I love Clover. Their needles are long enough to be comfy and not awkward in your hands. The cable is stiffer...good for circular loop knitting as they dont get twisted or bent. The points are not sharp so you dont pierce your yarn. I have these in every size and every length. They are getting harder to find and I fear they may not be making as many anymore since most people like the interchangeable. I have the interchangeable and do not like them. Things get caught in the joint.

These needles last forever.

Best needles out there! Worth the extra money.

The cable is much too short. I didnt like these at all because the cable is so short that the needles get in the way of each other. Very poor design. Buyer beware! Everything from this brand is measured from tip to tip and the lengths stated are the length of the whole product, not the cables. This is a very difficult product to use due to the extremely short cable length. I bought these to make socks and found myself struggling to make anything at all with them. I am an experienced knitter. Im now very happily knitting with a set of needles that come with adjustable cable length. Those are worth the money.

I got these needles because I wanted to try out circular knitting without spending a lot of money. I think theyre a good value for beginners, but probably wont be anybodys favorite. The joins between the cable and the tips are pretty smooth and sturdy, and I didnt have any problems with snags. The tips were well-made, not warped or splintered, but the finish is very grabby. Bamboo needles are generally higher-friction than metal, but these are even more high-friction than other bamboo needles Ive tried (like Crystal Palace dpns). This makes knitting with them feel more laborious than with needles that have a more polished finish. With these needles, I have to stop very often to push the stitches along the needles, whereas with my Addi Turbos, the stitches glide along much more on their own. This level of friction could be helpful to beginners, since it means theyre much less likely to drop a stitch, but knitters with more practice would probably prefer something that wasnt so grabby. Clover also makes a set of interchangeable circular needles, but they have the same finish as these needles, and thus I would not recommend that set, as I feel that a knitter would quickly outgrow them with increasing experience. A couple of these cheaper fixed circulars might be useful to learn on, but I feel it would be better to invest in a set with a slicker finish because they are easier on your hands over the long run.

I find the quality of Clover Takumi Bamboo needles to be very good, and this one is no exception. The needles are smooth, pointy, and the join between cable and needle is seamless.
