What a pleasure it is to knit -- just need to get used to using the correct needle cable, but just knitting to achieve stocking stitch is great. The needles themselves are so smooth and comfortable to use, going back to ordinary needles when needed is a chore!!
these needle tip are very good. the smaller sizes can break though so be careful how you hold them to screw on the wire. Always screw the tip onto the wire. if you screw the wire onto the tip you twist the wire and it unscrews itself.

These needles are excellent. very smooth wood makes knitting very easy. When ordering the wire however order the actual length of wire you require not the overall length including the needles. Also be aware that the needles come in two lengths. Standard and Short. the Standard are best for most knitting patterns.
Superb quality - very smooth and strong. Easy to fit.
Love these so light and colourful easy to use and versatile
Whoever invented this interchangeable system needs a pat on the back, an excellent product .
Easy to change needles, quick to do, simple system but oh so effective. will purchase more needle, cables etc. as required.
Knit pro are simply the best. I'm still adding to my collection. Excellent for magic circle knitting. I use them daily for all sorts of garments.
Very swift delivery. Another size needle for my collection. Love the adaptability of the System and the warmth of the wood. Just wish the connection from plastic to metal of the band was more smooth.
They are very light and smooth but not too smooth as metal ones, so if you are knitting very fast there is less chance of slip stitches. And yes they are very good to look at.
These beautiful Symfonie Wood Interchangeable Needle Tips from KNITPRO are ideal for anyone wishing to complement their existing collection of KNITPRO interchangeable circular needles
Of course the colour is what first catches your eye. But, the beauty is more than skin deep. The layers of laminated birch give the needles a strength that is missing in regular wooden needles.
The stability allows KnitPro to shape sharp points- particularly nice for lace knitting.
Being wood, the burnished surface has a slight grip so slick yarns like mohair and angora don't slip off at the wrong time. This quality also makes them an excellent choice for beginning knitters, who sometimes have trouble keeping stitches on the needles.
The tips are between approx 11.5cm and 13cm long (including metal base) depending on size.
They are designed for use with all KnitPro cables, except for the 40cm cable as this is designed specifically for KnitPro short tips. While the 40cm cable will attach to these tips, it will limit the angle you will be able to get between the tips to around 60 degrees.
