Addi turbos are absolutely the best circular needles if you like to knit fast. They are very smooth and slippery and the yarn just comes around without having to constantly push it. I have about nine in different needle and length sizes and love them all. The join area never has a bumpy part where yarn gets stuck, unlike in some circulars. I don't know if it's a different metal, but they are completely different to knit on than cheaper metal needles. The only problem I've ever had is with one needle getting squished when it ended up on the floor of my car and got stepped on. But even that one is still usable. Just make sure to choose the right length. I'd use 9" or 12" for hats, so you can stay on circulars as long as possible (though the 9's would be tough for bigger hands). Probably 16" for a kid's sweater. I haven't yet tried magic loop with these, but that would call for a longer length I believe. Oh, the only people who might not like these circulars are people who's biggest peeve is having yarn fall off and prefer to knit with something "sticky" like bamboo. But get these if you want your yarn to slide around easily.

I love these needles, they do not snag, are crisp and easy to use. price is reasonable; I've used bamboo and alum. but, these are far better needles.
