Very Nice: Very nice set of knitting needles. It's convenient to have so many sizes handy. Shipping was very, very quick--I received this *before* Amazon's earliest estimated date.
Love Them!!!!!: I got these because I am alwayse needing to buy more needles for my projects. Now I have all of them in this kit and they are able to lock together so now I have even more options. And the case is great for keeping everyting together nice and neat.
Would they pass security..?: Im not sure if they will pass airport security, have anyone try it? Although I do think its very good for traveling.
The BEST Investment for Knitters!!!: I began learning how to knit late march 2008, and I was discouraged to learn how I have to change the size needle for every prject I want to work on. So, I decided to purchase the Denise kit instead for it is a perfect investment for those who knit on a regular basis, and I have no regrets of doing so to this day. I absotlutely LOVE knitting with the Denise needles for they are plastic and will pass airport security; and I am able to connect various cables to create a particular length for each project. Like stroking fingernails on a chalkboard, the metal needles made me cringe when I slid a stick off a needle, and the Bamboo needles are too expensive to purchase either as a set or individually to justify the purpose of having them. With a liftime guarantee for a product where it is close impossible to destroy the needles, I highly recommend this product for all levels of knitters.
A useful kit, but I prefer to use regular needles.: My boyfriend bought this for me as I never had the right needles for the project (we all know how frustrating that is!). Now, I pretty much have all the right needles, but I don't really enjoy knitting with them. These needles are plastic, which is good because if you like to knit on the plane, theoretically you can take them on board. I haven't tried this yet, however, as I fear that they will still make me throw them away for some ridiculous reason (like threatening the pilot the I'll knit him a cheesy Christmas sweater or some itchy socks). I personally prefer metal needles and I find that these tips are a little too blunt and the smaller ones are a little bendy, which I don't like so much. The thing that bothers me the most is that the cords are pretty thick and inflexible and if you are knitting with a small gauge needle the yarn just doesn't slide around on the cable very well. The yarn also gets caught on the connectors, which is really irritating. I have to constantly stop and go through the process of pushing all the stitches around to create some slack. Bottom line: I am glad I have them if I want to start a new project right away, but I often find myself buying a set of metal ones and using them instead, thus defeating the purpose of the set.
