I was afraid of not being delivered on the reviews after my order. I sent a message and received a reply assuring me immediately of shipping the package. The needles are very handy (the 50 cm cable is enough to make sweaters, maybe not for very large structures such shawls, there the Knit Pro are better). The cables plastic smell is very strong but is in the process of starting over days. I wonder how I could knit front with large straight needles. The circular, it is really nice to knit right. Easily portable (about the size of a ball when folded), Bamboo needles are very pleasant to the touch and wool glides. They are sufficiently sharp. If Knit Pro are aesthetically at the top (with a cable length that varies), I am not afraid to take them everywhere. The mesh can sometimes hang slightly on the plastic tip when you restart a row but this is a detail that is not very annoying and quickly resolved by pushing the stitches. The thickness of the cables vary depending on the size of the needles and I think that's good. It's easy to take the number of needles that fits the cable is already in place. For this, it is simpler to use than Knit pro. Honestly, I'd recommend to anyone these needles do not want to invest a fortune in a circular needle kit because they are really great. I'll give my old straight needles to my stepmother! As for steel hands, so cold, impossible to knit again with this (I OA) The needles are barely legible numbers, a little bit of indelible ink is needed!
