ChiaoGoo 6009-4 9-Inch Red Line Circular Knitting Needles, 4/3.5mm

PSA: these needles do NOT have the angled ends like the photo shows!! So if you need those bent ends, keep lookin'. That being said, these needles are GAME CHANGERS for things like socks, sleeves, and baby hats! Anything with a small circumference like that. I just LOVE ChiaoGoo needles! The joins are smooth as butter, the needles themselves have just the right amount of "drag" (friction) or lack thereof... So I am still giving them 5 stars because honestly the product itself is flawless, with unmatched quality. Just wish the photo matched what you will actually get! I know that is the sellers fault, not ChiaoGoo's!

My favorite needles these 9 inch circulars are great for sleeves and socks I’m knitting they’re smooth yarn glides easily

Love this needles. It's the first time I've used this brand and I enjoyed working with them.

The first row on these size 3 circulars is a nightmare! After a few rounds however, it becomes so much easier to use than the typical 4 needle round work. Especially as I have a horrible tendency to whip out the wrong needle when switching to the next working needle. With circulars there is no accidentally yanking out the wrong needle. Phew! Less time picking up stitches for me. With worsted weight, I have 30sts, working a rib stitch cuff for an 8 year old. I would have trouble trying to join any fewer stitches in a round on these. I think the max stitches (I would be comfortable working) in worsted weight would be approximately 90. Tiny little needles took me 9 rounds to get accustomed to using. I don't remember precisely what knitting style I have, but I know it isn't 'throw-over'. My tension seems standard, meaning I rarely have to adjust anything when using a pattern. I love the shorter ChiaoGoo needles for my hEDS, arthritic hands. Fewer dislocations and less stiffness compared to the exaggerated movements necessary with standard straight needles. I only use standard straight needles when I can't possibly figure out a way to adapt whatever project to my ChiaoGoo RedLace set. So if you know what I'm talking about with the stiff, magically dislocating fingers, find yourself a RedLace set, you'll love them!

Just what I needed. Knitting sleeves and this is the perfect length. Love these cables, they are the best. Needles knit very smoothly.

There’s a reason everyone raves about these

Works good. Points are like needles though. Needs to be a little more rounded

I've been knitting for many years. I won't tell you how many. My age will show! ~smile~ I've used a lot of different needles over the years. Without a doubt, ChiaoGoo is my favorite brand. The steel needles are smooth, the joins are smooth, and the cords are smooth and tangle free. Obviously, the cord in this set is too short to tangle. ~smile~ These size 7 9" circulars were purchased to knit Cream Cabin Socks. I've never used size 7 9" circulars before. The worsted weight yarn moves easily over the needles and the cord. I'm very happy with them. I think that these are an excellent value for the money, because I've never had a pair of ChiaoGoo's fail. I expect them to last as long as I need them then go on to live in someone else's knitting bag.

Je tricote beaucoup et j'ai toujours un petit ouvrage en cours en parallèle de mes gros projets et c'est souvent des chaussettes. J'ai adopté les mini-circulaires pour ce type d'ouvrage et je trouve que ça simplifie bien le travail. Je tricote avec des aiguilles Addi habituellement (j'ai essayé les Hya Hya mais je les trouve trop pointues, elles me blessent les doigts). J'ai beaucoup entendu de bien des aiguilles ChiaoGoo et j'ai voulu tester : ce sont de jolies aiguilles, bien finies. Le cable est souple, l'acier à semble de qualité mais tricoter avec n'est pas agréable du tout : alors qu'avec les Addi les mailles sur l'aiguille se poussent les unes les autres et glissent seules, sur les ChiaoGoo il faut constamment les pousser et les tirer (sur 60 mailles de rang de chaussettes, il faut faire cela plus de 12 fois) cela rend le travail moins fluide. Ce n'est pas un problème de jointure aiguille/cable car cela "n'accroche pas", peut-être est-ce du au choix des matériaux? De plus, sur les aiguilles Addi il y a une aiguille plus longue que l'autre (celle qu'on utilise pour piquer dans la maille), cela rend la préhension de l'ouvrage plus aisée et repose bien le poignet. Bref, je retourne à mes aiguilles Addi.

Estas agujas son geniales. Son mis primeras Chiaogoo y me gustaría poder encontrar mas opciones en Amazon para comprarlas. Son de un bambú ligero y resistente. Muy suave, la lana se desliza de maravilla. Giran sobre si mismas en la unión del cable y eso me parece una genialidad. Me vienen de maravilla para tejer en redondo las mangas de los jerséis, no tardo nada.

I got these because I have been looking for 9"(23cm) circulars for sock knitting as the usual 10" (25cm) length (KnitPro) are just that bit too long. I've heard nothing but good things about Chiaogoo needles and they do not disappoint. The cable is flexible and smooth. The needles have just the right amount of grip on the yarn, that keeps them from just dropping off, but doesn't stop them from moving around, and have been perfect for knitting colorwork socks. They were worth the extra money. 10/10
