Stainless Steel Circular Knitting Needles Set for Beginners, 32 inch US Size 2 (3mm) Round Metal Knitting Needles with Magic Loop, Fixed Circle Needles for Sock, Blankets, Sweater, Scarf, Mittens

Pleasantly surprised since they were so cheap. Was NOT expecting addi needles. Excellent quality. The join between cord and needle is smooth and doesn't snag the thread. I wasn't expecting the blunt needles but they also are well made. The cord so far seems great and doesn't twist and turn on me. Doesn't come in every needle size which is my ONLY complaint 😂. Only difference between these and the Chiagoo red lace fixed needle I have is the cord size is slightly thicker on the Chiagoo so not much of a difference.

This was exactly what I thought it was. I especially like how they are packaged and labelled for easy storage

These are nice needles. They aren’t all 36”. I think it’s nice they enclosed a darning needle in each set but there’s just one complaint. They eye of the darning needles are too small and are all the same size.

These knitting needles are far better than I expected. They have a smooth join between the cable and the tips. I had no problems knitting in the round and straight with these circular needles. I would buy them again. I am an avid knitter and these are a great deal.

Very smooth and easy to use

I misplaced my US1 32" Chiaogoo needles, and decided to get another pair of circs based on principle that as soon as you appease the Gods of Universal Perversity by purchasing a replacement, the original will mysteriously reappear. Well, mail-order replacement is running about $11 for the Chiaogoo needles and $6 for shipping. (A LYS is out, because I'm still in pandemic mode and minimizing in-person shopping even though ("especially since"?) the rest of the country appears to have decided that 500 deaths a day and 3-4 million (and counting) disabled from long Covid and unable to work is a perfectly acceptable new normal.) Besides, all I need to do is complete the garter-stitch edging on a triangle scarf, so how bad could it be?Well...these needles were $7, *including shipping*, plus a bonus of 10 plastic safety-pin-type stitch markers and a well-intentioned (but too small for yarn) chenille needle. And they appear to be every bit as nice as my Chiaogoos, with very flexible coated steel cables, and the size etched on the needles. The join may be even a tiny bit smoother than on my 3.25mm Chiaogoos. The needles are a bit longer, with a bit of a bend toward the end closer to the cable. At any rate, I have decided not to be such a needle snob, and have now placed an order for the set of 6 (currently on sale for $13).

I bought these thinking that I’d be able to knit. Nope can’t do it so they were returned.

These needles definitely have memory and it’s annoying to fiddle with. But they do the job and I appreciate the extra needle and stitch markers that came with them!

Bought these circular needles for my new beginner's projects. Great needle length and the cords are memory-free. They are very smooth and glide effortlessly when knitting. I hope they will not snap off where the cord and needle meet after many uses.When I first received them, I returned them because I thought they sent me the wrong sizes. After all, the online description was in US measuring, but the package came in metric. I almost returned the second package, until I realized they were written differently. I had to go back to the online description to confirm the sizes. For a beginner who's not used to knitting needle sizes, this confusion could've been avoided if both sizes were indicated on the package. Aside from this little incident, I'm very happy with the needles and would recommend them.

Knitting a larger baby blanket with these, they're very comfortable to use and love the colored cable between the needles

It's a great circular needle at a great value, with smooth joins. BUT there are two things that make it less than perfect for magic loop knitting:1) the bends at the base of each needle. This bend is not at all required when working magic loop and just gets in the way.2) a somewhat stiff cable. It's clearly strong and durable, which I appreciate, but the plastic cable on circs like Knitpicks and Knitter's Pride is much more flexible. This makes a big difference at the sides when working magic loop, as a stiff cable tends to stretch the stitches apart and create a distortion in your knitting if you aren't careful to make your first and last stitches very snug.

Have been knitting for over 60 years and this is one of the best needles I have ever used. Just because it's inexpensive does not mean it's lacking quality. Will certainly be purchasing other sizes as they are needed.

Good needles and good price
