CurtzyDouble Ended Bamboo Knitting Needles with Storage Pouch (80 Pieces) - 2mm to 12mm Sizes - 25cm / 10 inches - Pointed Needle Set for Beginners

Not sure why these fall into the "toys" category. They are by no means a toy. Very sharp.Really wonderful set of double pointed bamboo knitting needles, in a huge variety of sizes. comes in a lovely linen wrap to keep them all safe. Have knitted 4 hats with them so far and all have turned out perfect. Really really pleased with this product, so glad i brought it, and a bargain price!

Excellent beginner needles, useful carry case. Some of the needles have little lengthwise grooves due to the grain of the bamboo, but it's not a deal-breaker for the price. Some of them are a little curved but it doesn't bother me. They make good flat needles too if you put a stopper/elastic band on the end, so for a total beginner who wants a big set of needles that can do almost anything they'll need (flat work and round), these are excellent.

The needles arrived promptly, and are exactly as described. Lots of needles, in a very wide range of sizes (five of each size, sizes clearly marked) held in a cloth case that, while a bit fiddly, does the job and should hold up well. I used the needles to finish a hat, and they are fine; I haven’t used wood or bamboo before, so the needles seemed a bit ‘sticky’ to me, and the stitches didn’t slide off all that easily, but that may be me rather than the needles. I’m sure they will serve my needs adequately for a long time to come, and the price (especially compared to single-size sets) was spectacular.

I’ve only just started using the 4mm double pointed needles to knit in the round but I’m finding them pleasantly lightweight and easier than the metal ones I’ve used previously because they sort of hold the wool so it doesn’t slip off easily but at the same time you can still get lots of action with stitches sliding up and down as you knit.It was great to get a whole set of sizes so you can up or downsize your needles after you’ve swatched. Plus 5 needles in each size gives you more scope than 4. They come in a handy needle tidy too.

Great value and just as advertised. I consider myself medium experienced and they seem good. I haven't used them enough yet to really comment. Only used two of the 4mm to practise my fairisle but seem good. Light weight and no snaggy bits. I have metal DPNs also and the points on these bamboo needles are much sharper (but not too sharp) - much easier with fiddly small stitches.

They are too bendy, don't feel strong enough in the smaller sizes and even the bigger ones bend

I purchased this primarily for the larger sized needles and they do not disappoint. Others mention the case which I have actually found a bonus as I store upright and can remove needles when needed. However, if you are purchasing for the smaller sized needles, I would say 5mm and below then I would steer away from this set completely - the 3mm and under are a complete waste of time, I seriously would not even contemplate starting a project on these sized needles as they would not make it through (and I am a gentle knitter) - they are going to snap for sure. I would steer clear unless you want the larger sizes. Hope that helps

Superfast delivery. Great set of knitting needles and to have 5 of each size is an added bonus. Easy to knit with and very smooth. Very pleased with my purchase.

Gute Mischung der Auswahl. Brechen leider leicht

Muy buena calidad-precio. Volveria a comprarlas.

På bilden visas att setet ska innehålla 5 stickor av varje storlek. I verkligheten hade några storlekar 4 stickor, de flesta 5 stickor och några 4 stickor.

De naalden zijn krom, hebben botte punten, en de dunne naalden splinteren.

Arrivati perfetti. Sono scorrevoli leggeri molto belli e utili. Non avevo mai usato ferri in bambù e direi che questi mi soddisfano pienamente
