Q: Hi! I have ordered your chiaogoo red lace 16”fixed circulars and like that the needle tip is a bit longer than others, measuring about 3 3/4”. Could you please tell me if you have any 16” fixed circulars in bamboo or wood having the same length needle tip? The chiaogoo bamboo description does not state the length of the actual needle part. The brand of the needle does not matter. In other words, I am looking for a bamboo or wooden 16” need with longer tips. Thanks very much for any recommendations that you can give me.

Asked by: Eleanor - 3/12/2019
A: Unfortunately we don't have any 16" wood/bamboo needles with the longer 3.75" tips. Most of them are approximately 3.5" or a bit shorter.
