I initially bought the size 3 tips and some cords just to test these out since I needed a 3circ and it was cheaper than buying a fixed needle. Within 5 minutes of trying the combo out I was ordering the set. The tips are just lovely. The slope is perfect and they are pointy without splitting your fingertips. The cables and joins are really just the best too. I was worried because it looks like there's a nub at the top of the cord, and there is, but even with the little 3 tips yarn just glides over it SO well. Much better than any of the other needle sets or fixed circs I've had. Definitely a sound investment and a better deal than the lantern moon 300$ set or the addi natura which only comes with 8 tips and no 16" cord.

These are beautiful needles and I love the wood - the set is lovely. The case is beautiful and the cords are supple and soft. However, the needles constantly come unscrewed from the cords while I'm knitting and I've dropped the needles several times already and almost lost them and dropped stitches also...what a pain. Also my very delicate yarn (silk/linen) consistently catches on the join and I have to stop and work it over the join to continue knitting. It's a shame because it's a beautiful looking set. Just not as functional as the earlier reviews led me to believe. Especially for the price. The needles themselves are quite small. If the wood sections were longer and the joins smoother, I would have liked this set much better, and of course if they stayed connected. Disappointed, as the rosewood is so pretty and the set overall so handy.

Comments about Colonial Needle Company Rosewood Interchangeable Knitting Needles:
Joins are horrible on this, and the needles are too short. The wood is beautiful so it is a shame. Way too many dropped stitches and snags on expensive yarn. Going to try the bamboo sets with the click in joins. This was too expensive a set to have so many issues.

Comments about Colonial Needle Company Rosewood Interchangeable Knitting Needles:
The needles themselves are beautiful, however the cords and connectors are not of very good quality. I have already snapped a cord, it just tore right in two. I have had this set less than a year, and I am just not pleased with it. I have 3 size needles (6,7,9)that constantly pop off the cords. It is frustrating because I don't always notice right away and have to spend time picked up all the slipped off stitches. I like the convenience of having an interchangeable set, but for the price, this wasn't the best purchase.

Comments about Colonial Needle Company Rosewood Interchangeable Knitting Needles:
This knit needle set is awesome! My husband suprised me with them, and I can't say enough about how amazing they are. With this I now knit faster and smoother! The quality is superb. The needles have such a smooth finish, nice weight and the connections (all of them) are seamless and sturdy. The case is well made and organized-everything you need!! I also love that ALL of the needles have their size printed on them. WORTH THE INVESTMENT

These needles are beautiful, the cords are flexible and the case is just gorgeous. Worth the money.
Comments about Colonial Needle Company Rosewood Interchangeable Knitting Needles:
I absolutely LOVE these needles. They have never come undone while working on a project, stitches never get stuck at the join, 3 different cord lengths make them very versatile, cords are flexible, and the wooden tips are smooth and light. I can't imagine living without them!

My husband surprised me with this set, and it's amazing! It feels great to knit with, and everything about it feels special and luxurious.
Comments about Colonial Needle Company Rosewood Interchangeable Knitting Needles:
I just received this set last night and tested every join on every cable, needle, and stopper and they all work perfectly (unlike the other big yarn company's interchangable set that I just got rid of). Tips are smooth wood and nicely tapered and sharp without being lethal. The cords were kink free even after being stored in the case. I ordered some of the Webs clear interchangable cables to go with this set and they have the same join, so this set and the Webs bamboo one have interchangable parts. The case itself is nice and compact but has ample room for the extra cables and stoppers I bought. I am extremely happy with this needle set! If you like Colonial needles this is a much more affordable way to get them.

I got this for Christmas...now I have all the knitting needles I need. It certainly is a SWEET set of needles. The cables are soft & flexible. It is great to travel with, everything all in one case. One of the nicest gifts my husband has ever given me.. (even though my daughter suggested it.)..thanks honey
