"By the way - order the waxed thread here/online; if you go to certain fabric stores *cough* starts with a J *cough*, they will tell you regular thread is what you need."

"I took several knitting classes and the teacher recommended these, and also recommended the sharper "lace" tips."
"For those looking for GOOD interchangeable needles, try these."
"There are no tools for tightening the needles to the cables, hand tightening is sufficient, but there are rubber grip pads if they aren't tight enough."
"The needle sizes go from US 2 through 8 which is great for me since I needed the smaller sizes with various lengths of cord."
"I tried the 5" but found it was too big for the baby hats that I knit so I contacted the seller and returned these with NO HASSLES whatsoever."
"I also like the why they feel and, again, I like how thin the cables are, unlike others I've used which have thicker cables."
"For example when I started knitting I didn't know that you need different size needles for different types of yarn... Long story short I'm giving these needles 5 stars because after having them for a couple of months and using them frequently I am thoroughly impressed with the quality (they're still awesome, like the day they showed up) and the flexibility I have to work on so many different projects."
