Review of 6" (15cm) Knitter's Pride Karbonz Double Pointed Knitting Needles

Customer Ratings:

I bought these needles after having problems with bamboo dpns grabbing my stitches and aluminum dpns dropping my stitches. The Karbonz needles are the best. I used them for knitting the heel on a pair of socks. The needles held the yarn firmly, but allowed it to move smoothly...didn't drop a single stitch. The needles are also very sturdy and not at all flexible like some of the thinner dpns are. No fear of snapping them in two.

They are very strong with just enough flex. I had bamboo and they were terrible. I was always scared to K2tog with bamboo. Karbonz are very sturdy. The only complaint I have is the join isn't seamless. I get a little catch sometimes and it's a bit annoying. I am not sure I would buy these again for that reason. All in all they are a decent needle, but the join is a slight issue for me.

I usually knit my socks magic loop because after my first experience on bamboo dpns and how they constantly felt like they were going to snap I decided they were just not sturdy enough. Not with these! They are awesomely sturdy and do not feel like they will snap, yet lightweight and have pointy tips. I love them. I own them now in 0, 00, and 000.
