ChiaoGoo Premium Bamboo 9 Inch (23 cm) Circular Knitting Needles

I love these 9 inch circulars for socks, mittens, and sweater cuffs. I have been using sizes 1, 3, and 5 for two years. My socks always come out perfect, no laddering. Once you learn to relax your grip and tension, knitting is so effortless with these, you barely have to move your fingers! I could never go back to using double pointed needles again, other than for starting toes, or making heel flaps and thumbs. I have recently discovered that Handsome Fibers has the best price out there for nine inch circulars. Note - I knit continental-style and a bit on the loose side.

The ChiaoGoo 9" needles are a true wonder. Handsome Fibers' price is such a treat and shipping is immediate. I ordered them and two days later, I have them in my hands. I rate this company as fantastic!

I love these needles! I was wanting a circular to knit some fingerless gloves and was tired of the magic loop. I didn't realize needles came in such a small size. Like another reviewer said, they do take some getting used to. It was awkward at first not having a needle touching my palm as I knit. After knitting with these for a while, I'm incredibly happy with them!

These are great. Were a little fiddly at first, but I was trying to use them too big a diameter project. Works great for baby hats. So much easier to do colorwork hats on these than DPNs. These are smooth and don't catch. Highly recommend.

These needles are great. I usually hate bamboo needles because I'm such a tight knitter, but the wood on these is sooo smooth. I can knit up phone cases and legwarmers with ease, no double points or finagling over long cables required. They take some getting used to, especially if you have larger hands like me, but they're so worth it. I have several pair and can't wait to by the other sizes. I'm so smitten with these, I've been ogling the 12" needles too.

Goodbye double pointed needles. I used these 9" #2 needles to knit a pair of fingerless gloves. Worked out perfect.

Love these needles--they are perfect for the way I knit socks. I'm back to buy a larger size to try sleeves!

I have been ordering ChiaoGoo knitting needles for several years now. I absolutely LOVE them and I won't use anything else. My stitches are so much more even. They are also very well made. Thanks ChiaoGoo!
