> 24 hourThese do a fine job of holding stitches, but they are for me too flimsy to knit off of. Thats ok if you dont mind the extra step of slipping the stitches back onto your needles. They may be ok for lightweight yarns.

> 24 hourThey serve their purpose perfectly! They are smooth and come in a variety of sizes. I love the hook part that allows the held stitches to hang nicely without the entire needle getting in the way. I dont generally knit the stiches off of the hook, I will slip them back on the knitting needle before knitting them, but that is just my style! I have a knitting friend that will knit them right off! I got the Jumbo ones too. My first cable was knit with the aid of a double pointed needle. The needle would wobble around, and sometimes slide off, dropping the stitches, and the needle would get in my way. I swore off cables until a friend showed me these --I now love working with cables!

> 24 hourThese are much better than the old style long ones that clasp. These are easier to use and move around. I like that they come in 3 sizes for the different projects that I work on. They are smooth and easy to work with because theyre very light and not too long, just big enough for a cable.

> 24 hourPerfect! I thought it might be tricky to use these but I liked them better than other options available for holding cable stitches. I knit off of them directly and stitch of most yarn types I used so far glide off them with no troubles at all. I prefer the U shape as it doesnt get in the way- the cable stitches are held on the curve and the needle can be left dangling in front/back of your work without getting in the way of the main needles. I slip on the stitches with the smaller end and use the longer end to knit them with. Its a great product and I love it.

> 24 hourI like this style of cable needle for certain cable patterns, but I wish they had a smaller size in the pack. I used it for fingerling weight gloves, and the smallest size was a bit too large. Most of these are for thicker yarns/needles, just bare that in mind. I also wish they made them just a little shorter, as with all cable needles, they tend to be on the long side, which is fine if you are doing large cables, but for less than 5 sts, you really dont need that much length.
