Fast!

I love these needles. I adore that fact that the cable is smooth and doesn't roll or bunch when knitting. The needles themselves are slick and allow for fast knitting. I have these needles in different sizes and lengths and I love them all.

Smooth knitting with these circulars

The lace tips are a must for knitting fingering yarns. The red cable never twists. My go to choice for many knitting projects. I have several of these circulars. I assume the interchangeable circulars are of the same great quality.

Love the product - But absolutely Hate how Amazon ships it

I love ChiaoGoo lace needles. They are the best circular needles I've ever used. They're light weight, nice and smooth so yarn doesn't snag on them and the tips are pointier than other brands so I don't get yarn splitting. That being said, Amazon should stop placing their inventory tag right over the area of the needle case that gives the size and length of the needle. Most of us knitters keep the needles in the cases for storage. We need to be able to see the size information easily. The tags covering that info are almost impossible to take off. And then they ship them in these new "tear at perforation" mailers that are IMPOSSIBLE to tear open. I've received lots of these mailers and never once have I been able to open them at the perforation. I always have to use a scissors. So much for their "frustration free" packaging

Knitting projects easier

A must have for the cork screw winter hat. I use the #8 size often. The needles are great and I bought 2 sets but different. One was silver metal and one was bamboo. It is easier to keep track what goes where by using 2 different types same size.

So far my favorite

I am new to knitting so I have been buying different brands of circular needles and so far these are my favorite. I'm thinking of investing in a full set of the interchangeable needles because of this fact. Smooth. Sharp. Exactly what I would expect in needles.

ChiaoGoo needles are a good brand.

The place needles have the sharper points that make picking up the yarn much easier.

great

they are just what I wanted

the only circular needles for me

They are perfectly smooth and don't require re-positioning of the knitting over the spots where the needles join the cable like many other brands do. They also feel nice in the hand and are not noisy or cold like aluminum needles, plus much smoother than bamboo or wood.

Cant go wrong with ChiaoGoo needles

My favorite lightweight needles with the most perfect cord.

Always great

I have now purchased 7 Chiaogoo red lace circulars in different sizes and will buy more as needed. I don't care for interchangeables, and these are so dependable and comfortable to use. They work well for magic loop until they get to size 13, as the red lace cables increase in diameter with the size of the needles.
