Bamboo Circular Knitting Needles Takumi , 9-Inch Size 3 (3016/9-03)

Great for small projects!

Lovely to knit with, met my expectations. Started my collection with these. Love the bend at the join.

Very nice. Ordered it to be able to knit socks in the round (for the most part). A little too short for working the toe part (had to switch to double pointed needles, but otherwise I was not disappointed. Took them on a trip with me, and once I got used to working with the short length, my speed increased, I wasnt dropping my double pointeds (as usual) and could stash the whole thing right in my purse. Very nice needles

When I first tried them, I didnt think I was going to like them at all. Once I got used to them, though, without having to shuffle between double pointeds or even magic loop, my speed at sock knitting improved noticeably. I did switch to DPNs for the heel/gusset and to hold the stitches for the Kitchener bind-off, but the cuff, leg, and foot portions flew by. Also, since there is no switching between pairs of needles, the dreaded laddering is a thing of the past.

Love love love them. Perfect for two at a time toe up socks. Easy to store and travel with as well.
