Knit PicksOptions Interchangeable Knitting Needle Tips - US 4 (3.5 mm) Sunstruck

I’ve never used these needles before, and at first I was completely smitten. They’re smooth and light, very easy on my hands and a delight to knit with. After a while they begun to unscrew which is has caused a lot of problems while working with fine yarn. They also refuse to lock/stay locked in place with the little key that comes with the cable. I’m going to try washi tape over the connections and hope for that helps because I really want to find a solution. Both pairs I ordered have the same problem.

I love knit picks interchangeable needles. They are so easy to change, smooth yet "grippy" enough for slippery yarn.

These knitting needles slide smoothly as I knit. They stay well attached and I bought an entire set.

I love my interchangeable needles! I’m not crazy about knitting with needles this big but they’re so nice that I don’t mind so much!

Adding to my needle stash; with multiple WIPs going, these are the perfect addition.

I started using knitpicks interchangeable needles a while ago because a knitting friend gave me one of their starter packs, so I've been slowly adding needle sizes as needed.The good part is that these needles are beautiful, smooth, comfortable and mostly great to work with. They feel fantastic, the wood grain is really stunning, and the yarn doesn't slip or stick.The only con, which has been a minor issue with all of their interchangeable needles I've used so far, is that the needle will slowly unscrew from the cable as you work. This hasn't become a major issue for me yet, but it is a little bothersome to check them all the time and twist them back on as needed; and if you don't watch them I could see it coming undone and potentially dropping your work.This could just be an effect of the way I hold them, but I've heard others with similar complaints. I still recommend these needles, although I'm open to suggestions for any interchangeable needles that don't do this!

Love these things. I've had several for a decade, and most of them are in great shape. I needed a different size, so it was really nice to be able to get them really quick and not pay shipping!

When I went to purchase these I figured I would ignore the reviews saying that the metal connectors were loose. Surely those were just flukes. I received mine and one of the metal connectors was so loose that it fell right off with a small tug. I superglued it back on and it seems to be working fine now, but I'm a little disappointed that they fel lapart so easily in the first place. Besides that, these needles are great, correct thickness and very smooth/slippery so it is easy to slide the yarn.
