These ergonomically designed circulars are easy to work with and have some wonderful features. The tips are white (to show up against most yarns) and the tip size is clearly written on the body of the tip. They feature Prym's patented knobby tip which helps reduce yarn splitting and also keeps stitches from slipping off the needles. The cables are thin coated steel and are very soft and flexible with no memory. Katherine's note: I've test knitted with these and love them! In the past I have recommended bamboo circulars to my students new to circular knitting, but these actually surpass those because the cables are far more flexible, the tips have just the right amount of grip and those knobby tips do serve to save stitches from slipping off so easily while the surface of the tips has just enough friction to also reduce unnecessary slippage. That said, I would recommend to more experienced knitters as well because they are so very comfortable in your hands! Note: sizes are limited in this line and come in only 24" and 32" lengths
