ChiaoGoo 24 Inch RED Lace Circular Knitting Needles US 1 2.25mm

This set of circular needles is FABULOUSLY smooth. I love that the steel cable has no memory (meaning, it doesn't hold the same curve it held when packed in the package). The needle points are slick and very pointy. The connecting point (between the needles and cable) is shockingly smooth- not a chance the yarn is getting snagged on these.Also, this 24-inch cable is the perfect size for my baby blanket. Just long enough to hold all the stitches, with a bit of room to spare, and just short enough that I'm not having to work hard or continuously move the stitches in order to keep going. I love this set-- well worth the wait!

I have a collection of knitting needles - straights, circulars, interchangeables - and have spent oodles of money. I'm so glad I found these affordable lace needles with the sharp points. You need the sharp points when you're knitting lace. Addis are great but getting so expensive. These are just as good. The cable doesn't need straightening - I can't stand cables that constantly curl, even after soaking them in hot water. These are worth it.

Love these! I had so much trouble with my interchangeable needle separating from its cord that I had to buy another. This circular set was perfect. Smooth needles and cord. The cord didn't twist or bend. The yarns slips smoothly over the transition of the needle to.cord. the points were smooth and sharp enough to pick up my threat but not split it. A dream to knit with. So much so, I just bought another of this brand in another size.

These circular needles are the best. The cable is high quality and has a texture so they don't have a "memory" to stay curled, the needles are high quality, smooth joining so no snags. I buy only this brand if I can.

Love the pointy tapered tips of these needles as well as the sturdy, flexible cable. Perfect for my cotton lace work. Stitches glide smoothly and easily across the needles and the cable. I prefer stainless steel to nickel plated needles and I will be buying more of these in my most used sizes.

I taught myself how to knit socks on circs this winter, toe up, two at a time. These circs are great--just the right amount of flexible cord for me to make two women's socks. I might try getting longer ones if I try knitting men's socks. I'll certainly buy this brand.

I have to be honest, I bought these expecting to hate them. I have been a pretty devout Addi Turbo user, but they can be pricey. I tried these based on the reviews and I have to say I have been converted. The cable is flexible right out of the package, the tips are sharp and the connection point is smooth.

I absolutely love these needles. I bought them after battling with a pair from the craft store (the usual brands). The cable is flexible and doesn't need to be boiled to relax before using. The needles have great tips and knitting is a breeze with these things! I love them so much, I'll never use another brand again. Currently looking to purchase their complete interchangeable sets. These needles are well-worth it!
