Knitter's Pride Karbonz Fixed Circular Needles 16"
Knitter's Pride Karbonz 16" Fixed Circular Needles have the spectacular flex and tensile strength of carbon fiber, the same material used in aerospace engineering, with a warm feel like wood. These lightweight carbon circulars feature durable, flexible cables with a smooth join for easy, no-snag knitting. Karbonz Fixed Circular Needles have shiny, sharp, nickel-plated brass points and a smooth surface that's easy on the hands. These needles are also available in 24", 32", and 40" lengths.

These needles work well for infant hats made in the round. The shorter length makes it possible to avoid using double pointed needles on these smaller projects.

Comments about Knitter's Pride Karbonz Fixed Circular Needles 16":
I like the looks of this product but wish it offered a 20" length. Right now I'm using them on a cotton blend and they are working fairly well. The tips tend to occasionally split the plies when I don't pay close attention.

Comments about Knitter's Pride Karbonz Fixed Circular Needles 16":
I so wanted to love these needles, as I knit a lot of socks with Size 0/1, and wanted something I wouldn't have to worry about breaking. I love the carbon fiber material (warm), and the cords are really nice as they don't hold a curled shape and have a good solid feel. Unfortunately, as is the case with most small-sized needles, the joins snagged. Specifically, one had good joins, while the other snagged (I had bought 2 sets), so I'm thinking its a quality control problem.
As usual, Webs was happy to take the return and followed through with the banking expeditiously.
