I ordered the set because I was very good and appealing the reviews and wanted to have a complete set with soft handle needles. Nice because I found that they can be kept the same in a nice bag. Terms of quality, the needles at the top are very good, wool does not stick in the hook. But what bothers me personally Long crochet is that the handle is indeed procure a Softummandelung, but the handle is constructed as a pencil. Ie. Not around or above a flat gripping surface but angular (unfortunately I do not notice when ordering). When I work long, hurts me the thumbs. Especially the smaller needles make me something difficult, I keep coming back to the edge. And I must say, I have normal hands / fingers, not too big. And what annoys me a bit (even though I have already noticed from other manufacturers) is that where the soft grip begins, the coating dissolves through the wool over time. Perhaps a beauty flaw, but what annoys me so, especially if my not had in use the needles so long, it begins. Otherwise, the projects with the needles can be processed well and are fairly easy.
