I have quite a few knitting needles. Straight ,circular and interchangeable. The ones I use most are the interchangeable. They are convenient and easy to use. You just twist the needle size you want on the cable,and you are ready to go.I love the Boye Needlemaster Set.
There are times on knitting patterns call for 2 different needle sizes. With straight or circular this can be a hassle to change over. I have used a different needle size on each end to give the patterns a different look. The different combinations are endless.
They come in a variety of sizes from size 2 to size 15. the set also come with 4 cables in sizes 20,24,29 and 36 inches. The kit also includes a key to tighten,a gripper to hold the needle while you tighten with the key and 4 button stoppers. With these you can make each needle a straight needle if you so desire. And it includes a zippered case for storage.
There are different names of interchangeable needles out there,but the Boye is very affordable over the others.They can easily be purchased in craft stores.You don't even have to buy the whole set at once. They sell them separately also.
I love the metal needles,the yarn just glides over them. The points are not too dull or too sharp. to me they are just right.I have had my set for over 10 years and the only thing I have purchased separately is extra cables for different projects.You can't go wrong with this set. They are easily purchased through Amazon or any craft store.
