I joined in on the "9 inch circular needle craze" and can now
cross THAT off my list!
I know that it really takes two weeks to learn a new way of doing something but I feel at my age, I don't want to waste two weeks doing something that hurts, feels wrong and is
unnecessary!
My fingers fly with the magic loop method and I was glad to welcome back the tried and true for me!
Just one bite might be a good advice for a picky eater child but having been one, I wasn't impressed with the advice then
or now!
Tried it, didn't like it.
Anyone interested in trying this 9'"metal Hiya Hiya needle, leave a message or email me and I will mail it right out.
The only caveat I attach is that if you don't like it, pass it on to someone else also.
If you love it--blog it and let me know!

oh no, I can't stand these shorties either:( I prefer to be old-fashioned with dpn or use two circulars - I don't even like the magic loop much. dinosaur - that's me:) back to knitting with broomsticks (aka 6 mm circs for ribbon yarn) - but I really prefer to use smaller needles, even though it takes a bit longer.....
ReplyDeleteI tried it too and it way too fiddly for me. I love magic loop and even double points are easier than those little things.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Araignee and you ---- too fiddly and not worth the effort when I have a system that already works.
ReplyDeleteMaybe people with younger hands would find it okay. Hope you find a taker for your needle. Is it possible you could return it to the store and get something you like?
