KnitPro Zing Circular Needle 25cm 2.50mm Red

first time using a circular needle. I had bought what I thought were some ready to wear arm warmers but I received the wool and a pattern! Thought I would have a go and these needles are just the job. I will say though, there is a very slight catch as stitch moves across left needle at join with cable and needle. My stitches definitely not tight either. Otherwise working very well for a first attempt and not knitted anything for over 20 years!

I’ve been knitting a lot and for years, but one thing I couldn’t get around to do were socks. I just hated to use DPNs and also having to continuously interrupt my “flow” to move the needle when using the magic loop. These have been a game changer, you can knit in the round normally and much faster, it also makes it easier to keep a good tension with colour work. Some people gets pain using them so maybe not the best if yous truffle with arthritis or similar issues, but I don’t and I personally never had any pain. Thanks to these I made socks for my whole family for Christmas!

Bought as a suggestion to knit socks as easier than using DPNs and it most certainly was!My one criticism is that, in common with most circular knitting needles, the yarn does catch on the join between the cable and the needle ends.

Length is perfect for knitting socks. High quality! They look smart. Very easy to knit with - yarn slides over easily. Well worth the money

So beautiful. Love it. Feels good and will be learning to knit with it hopefully

I've had two of these from Amazon in 2.75mm and strangely, both have had very tangible joins between the short needle and the cable. I sent the first back because I've not experienced it with any of my other knitpro needles but the second one was just the same so I guess it's just a design glitch or oddity, sadly, which means I'm more likely to use my Novas. Big shame because Zings are my absolute faves :/

I’m currently on a sock knitting adventure and needed a 9” circular in a particular size. I always prefer Knit Pro so when i spotted this item I knew it would be great quality and do the job. I wasn’t disappointed. I love the appearance of the red pins and black cord. One pin is longer than the other, making it easier to knit, they are small but very comfortable to use and they feel so expensive for such an affordable item. Anyway my stash is one circular dpn richer now. Highly recommended.

Fantastic needle. Just what I needed to knit some socks.
