Takumi Bamboo Circular 48-Inch Knitting Needles, Size 6 (3016/48-06)

I really love these knitting needles. they are lightweight and easy to handle yet sturdy and durable. I'm especially impressed with the Japanese origin. Though price was reasonable, these needles are absolutely top quality.

These are perfect for my project. I love the feel of wooden needles. I really like the way the yarn slides over these.

Very nice to knit with! Grips yarn well keeps your stitches from falling off.

I have used Clover Takumi bamboo knitting needles before, but not the circular type. These are actually the second set, different size, that I have purchased in the past 3 weeks. The points are really sharp, making it easy to pick up the stitches and unlike steel needles, the stitches haven't slipped completely off the needles yet! I needed the, for me, extra long length as I'm working on a project that will eventually have over 200 stitches, but the longer length is causing the cord between the needles to constantly twist around. I'm not sure if this is because you store the needles in a circle or not. Maybe it's just because the cord is so long. I like that the needles are very light and so easy to work with. Definitely a keeper.

Good needles

I purchased a US size 10.5 48"-long circular needle. I've always been able to rely on Clover circular needles. I am especially happy with the finer cable connecting the needles which is so much more flexible than the older thicker one. My one complaint is that a more rounded point would be better for knitting, less likely to split the yarn.

Really like the bamboo. Very smooth but not slippery. Loops stay on the pins till you make a stitch and slide it over. Have several different sizes now 🙂

These bamboo needles are great. Yarn doesn’t slip around when you’re knitting.

I am using the bamboo circular 48" size 8 US (metric 5) to knit a cardigan. I began this project with the standard metal needles and my yarn (Malabrigo Rios) was always slipping, and I was stabbing myself. I switched to the Clover bamboo needles and what a difference. The yarn does not slide off, but the bamboo is very well polished so that each stitch is perfect. No longer do I stab myself with sharp metal needles. If you are working lace, these needles do not have a pointy end, so that would make it more difficult, but for basic stocking stitch, plus some M1L and M1R, they are amazing to work with.

The needles are good quality, smooth, and highly workable bamboo and the plastic chord connecting them is hardy, doesn't twist up in weird ways while I'm working and is just the right length that I needed for my 240 stitch temperature blanket!

I have the same brand of knitting needles bigger size and 31 inches, and needed a smaller size and longer as knitting a larger item. They are comfortable and do the job, I like working with them. Highly recommend!

Ces aiguilles de 48" sont parfaites pour le travail que j'ai à faire. Et je peux les recommander sans me tromper.

They seem to work well .
