Best BambooMN 9" Double Point Bamboo Knitting Needles - 15 sizes 2mm Deals

Customer Ratings:

I always had used metal needles, but I needed longer ones that I could not find locally. I bought these because they were such a good deal for the price and found out that I really like bamboo.

I love these DPNs. They are smooth and easy to use. I just wish the labels were a little easier to see. I think that this set comes with way too many sizes, but it's nice to have them. :) I like the DPNs better than the ThinkBamboo circular needles, because I think the circular connector isn't ideally design. (i.e. snags)

Got these recently and I love them so far! Much warmer, and MUCH lighter than the similar metal hooks that I've been using for years. I wish I had bought these sooner. They are really smooth, but might occasionally have a small spot that is rough, but so far, after using 3 different sizes, no catches or snags. Rubbing wax paper will smooth them out if they start to get rough. None of them were warped, which surprised me.

One thing though, keep an eye on them, or hide them from the pets as they have a familiar 'wooden stick' odor, and the dog (our adult anyway) had an inclination to steal them off my workspace and start chewing them. Luckily I caught her soon enough that she didn't do any damage. (PHEW!) I have these hooks, the 12.5" knitting needles, and the crochet hooks all in carbonized finish.

I would absolutely buy from this seller again, the product came from upper-mid-west to New England in less than a week with super saver shipping, and they were packed fairly well.

Looking at purchasing the shorter lengths at some point soon as well.

Honest reviews on BambooMN 9" Double Point Bamboo Knitting Needles - 15 sizes 2mm

For a new knitter, this was a good value. I received 15 sets of needles that otherwise would have cost approximately $60, if I had bought them individually and in metal. However, the workmanship leaves a lot to be desired. The first set I used had a fracture that kept catching the yarn, as well as a bump of finish that my finger caught on. 'All points are not created equal', some of the tips are more blunt than others and I found that to be frustrating. Additionally, I've found I prefer metal needles over (lightly finished) wood or plastic.
