  I do like them. I use them for many things. Knitpro is a good brand, except for socks. For socks I definitely prefer Chiaogoo. But knitpro interchangeables don't go below 3.0mm anyway, so socks is not their "purpose" 😉

    Thank you for this! I love the design a lot. I’m finally beginning to knit bigger projects (first sweater going well, yay!) and I currently work on an old boye interchangeable set I have but the quality of those needles are poor relative to what I’ve heard about Knit Picks. I might pick them up and give them a try. Thank you!

  I use them and like them, but do be aware that they're a little more fragile. Not a problem most of the time, but I've snapped two on cotton and won't use them again for that yarn.

  I have the same rainbow set from Knitpicks. I definitely feel like my Chiaogoo metal are more slippery, in a good way. I’ve never used bamboo so I can’t compare to those. I would grab the used set but it would depend on the price as I prefer metal. Knitpicks frequently has 20% off needle sales.
