KnitPro KP47106 Zing: Knitting Pins: Circular: Fixed: 60cm x 8.00mm, Aluminium, Multi-Colour

I purchased the 4mm diameter. Really nice and smooth to use, I took a picture to compare the KnitPro Nova and Zing, I personally find the Zing easier as the actual needle is longer approx 14cm tip to cord junction, they are 60cm in total length, the cord is smooth and flexible, I would certainly buy another pair. 🙂

These circular pins are actually good! would it not be for the connecting metal bit to the cable. I bought my first pair about 2 weeks ago. The actual zinc pins feel nice and smooth, they have good pointy ends and if you are not a beginner, the stitches glide swiftly from the pins. The only problem I had was, that the transition from the metal bit which connects to the cable was not smooth or not well connected on one pin, as it catches my yarn, especially my cotton yarn and although I knit loose enough the stiches would not go smoothly over that joint and it gets to the point of being irritating and annoying when knitting relatively fast. I bought a second pair shortly after for comparison but there were also catching my yarn but on both pins so I had to return these but the return was no problem at all which was great. It is disappointing as I really love these pins but due to the annoying bit I can only give 4 stars and I am hoping that KNIT PRO will check this out, as these a good quality pins and it might be a faulty batch or a problem in production. Hope this helps ;-)

For years I have hated using circular needles because of the cheap short, plastic ends on other brands that make my arthritic han s hurt. The Knit Pro needles were so smooth and light to work with and it a pleasure to knit with them. They also gave me substantially reduced pain in my hands. I will definitely buy this brand again.

I trued this as a single before thinking about buying a full set. For over 30 years I have knitted with my needles under my arm but recent arm, shoulder and neck pain has limited my knitting. A friend suggested using this type of needle to help with the pain. It does take a bit of getting used to not having a needle under my arm but with a bit of patience I am getting used to it. Infact I don't want to use my other straight needles now! I have only used these for straight knitting as the patterns I have are for straight knitting not in the round.I am not thinking about buying the symfonie interchangeable set!The knitting sits in your lap so you are not taking the weight of it on your wrists/arms. The needles have a very sharp and precise point which I love and are perfectly smooth. No snags, no issues, infact I am loving using them!

Friends had recommended these knitting needles, especially for large size knitting. They work a treat and far better than an ordinary pair of needles. Intend to buy more in different sizes, and suggest the 60 cm as a minimum unless knitting very small items.

These are the best knitting needles I have used. I changed to circular due to having arthritis in my thumbs and find them a lot easier to use as you are not holding the weight on one side and also I knit when travelling so dont have to worry about dropping a needle at the end of a row. I would thoroughly recommend them. I have just about every size in them now

Lovely knitting pins. Smooth and at last I’ve achieved a neat tension after many years. Can’t praise these highly enough. I’m replacing all my knitting needles both fixed and interchangeable circular and straight needles with the zing range sizes.

I love these needles. The yarn flies off them smoothly and they are so comfortable to handle. To straighten the coiled plastic wires before using, just soak them in warm water to soften and gently stretch them out.
