Circular needles are easier to use than a set of double pointed needles. Given that, I think bamboo needles are the easiest to knit with because they are lightweight and very smooth. I recommend them.

The knitting needles work great and are sure handy for those jobs where a small circumference circular needle is a must, like sleeves, caps and socks.

I have a large variety of knitting needles but I find I go to my Clover brand ones most often. They are always good quality and they are not over slippery such as plastic, metal or polished wood ones. They’re also very durable. I’ve only had to replace them when points become blunted or as happened a couple of times a dog has chewed them.

Lovely to knit with. Bamboo is very smooth and comfortable for my hands. It’s the only brand I use.

I much prefer starting hats on circular needles as it's easier to keep from getting the yarn turned. Also the bamboo keeps the yarn from sliding off like metal needles. For the price, this brand is my favorite.

Clover bamboo needles have become my go to, especially the circular ones. They aren’t fancy but the bamboo has a texture that prevents the yarn from sliding around and reduces dropped stitches, which is helpful for beginners. The sharp points on the needles are also helpful, especially for sock yarn, which is what bought these for. I tried fancier needles with duller points and struggled with them, so switched back to clover for good.

After using plastic and aluminum knitting needles, the Clover Takumi Bamboo knitting needles are so much easier to use! I learned how to knit as a child at my grandmother's knees. Back then, the aluminum needles were the "thing" to use. When I picked up knitting, about eight (8) years ago, I experienced the use of bamboo when I purchased my first set of circulars. Wow! What a difference in ease! The yarns did not fall off the needles because there was a certain amount of "grab" in the bamboo, yet they release the yarn off the tips beautifully - when I want it to slide off. An added dimension, if you have arthritis, yet still want to keep your fingers nimble, so you knit, the needles maintain the warmth of your hands! This has been extremely helpful to me. And the Clover Takumi are consistent in their quality. I can't say enough -- except I can't find all the sizes I use around here -- hence my purchase at Amazon! And...if you use straight needles, Clover Takumi Bamboo has them, too!

Broke my Knitters Pride size 3s and needed to order the cheapest, quickest to arrive set of 3s possible and these did not disappoint!These are sharper than most needles I'm used to but I like it.Only issue is they absorbed some dye from some very colour saturated yarn, I washed them and they are sill kind of blue, but the dye hasn't transferred to lighter yarn.

Exactly as described and good product. I guess some prefer aluminum, but bamboo is lighter and not so hard on the hand with cramps.

I have these circular needles in a larger size and have no issues with them. But these are awful. Actually, unusable. The stitches get caught on a rough section when trying to slide from the cable back onto the wooden needle. And they're really pointy...so much so that it hurts to push on the tip to advance stitches forward a bit, and the tip easily catches parts of the yarn. You can compare it to how annoying it would be to use a sewing needle for cross stitch. It needs to be a bit more rounded.
