Knitter's PrideKP200608 Dreamz Deluxe Special Interchangeable Needles Set

Can’t beat knitters pride for quality and value. I initially purchased the Tunisian hooks and was so impressed. When I decided to take a go at knitting, I was torn between other popular brands. These won out for a few reasons. None of my cons are a reflection on the seller. Still I’m reviewing both seller and product so seller 5 ⭐️. Product 4.5 ⭐️Pros-I love the smooth stitching with the wood. Much easier to control stitches as a beginner than the metal. This goes for both Tunisian and Knitting. While I prefer my metal Susan Bates for standard crochet-man those are work horses-the knitters pride are just so buttery smooth. It’s an indulgence I can’t explain.Since I already had the KP Tunisian hooks and cables, it was a bonus that I can use the cables for the knitting needles.The shorter needle length is extremely helpful for a beginner knitter already proficient in crochet. You have better control. (Tip not related to the product itself-research Continental knitting technique. As a crocheter, this technique was the easiest transition. I’ve heard it is hard to switch from crochet to learning knitting, but the learning curve was much simpler with continental and I caught on immediately once I mastered a comfortable hold).Cons-Not a reflection on the seller and didn’t feel they deserved a lower rating for the below.So, the case left a lot to be desired but wasn’t a deal breaker. It just feels and looks cheap. I’m sure I’ll eventually upgrade the case. Also you can’t comfortably fit more than a few cables in the back packet without the case bulging out. As pictured I hve 3 cables and the empty package for the one I’m using in there and it’ll zip but I worry it’ll warp the needles. I like having all my accessories as possible in one case so consider upgrading cases.Also, I would have paid more for a few extra larger needles. Same when I bought the tc hooks. Again, not a deal breaker, but spending another $30-$40 for another 3 sets of larger needles was necessary in my case. Sounds petty. I know.The cables are fixed. I already knew this would be the case. I know there are compatible swivel cables to be found. So I will eventually upgrade cables to swivel when the time comes when I feel more confident and ready to upgrade those.The cables that came with the set are adequate. I don’t see a connector to attach the shorter ones to make longer. You would definitely want a connector or longer cables to work with the larger mm needles. So snag a 24” or 30” extra cable just to make life simpler from the start.Hope this is helpful.

These are a lot smaller than I expected, but I am very pleased with the size. Attached to the short cables, they are perfect for hat knitting. I purchase 4 other cord lengths to go with them and it greatly extends their usefulness. The tip size selection are the sizes I most commonly use. I decided to go with the short tip set because I could purchase more long cords and had a hard time finding the short ones like this set has. I am upgrading from a Boye set that I learned to knit on. I ended up paying about the same (the Boye set has more needles though), but the quality of the Dreamz is so much better. The joins seem to tighten easily and nearly seemlessly. I had issues with the Boye set coming loose in the middle of knitting (dropped stitches a couple times) and leaving a rough spot that the yarn would snag on. The Boye cords were also very thick, not flexible, and held a lot of memory. The Dreamz set is very flexible and doesn't seem to hold memory, which is my largest issue with the Boy set. I can not imagine doing the magic loop method in the Boye set, but I do not anticipate it being an issue with the Dreamz. I also think this set is the most flexible and may be one of the best knitting investments I have made in a while. I can always purchase additional tips for knitting bulky yarns or sock yarns to expand this small set. Even my none knitter was impressed by this small set when I showed him the difference between what I had been using and this set. I'm glad I made the investment. Already have a shawl WIP on the set (using a longer cord that I purchased for under $3). Loving it!

I have been knitting for about 10 years now and have always just used whatever needles were cheapest that seemed smooth. As I worked my way up from simple projects to more ornate projects with more expensive fibers, I found that the type of needle made a big difference in my enjoyment and ability to work the project.I never really thought about switching to interchangeable needles until I was traveling this summer found I needed a different size needle for a project. I stopped at a local shop and asked for turbos. The shop didn't have them but the shopkeeper recommended the Knitter's Pride saying they are almost as fast as the turbos and she used them for all her projects. I also didn't like being stranded in a different town unable to continue a project because I forgot to bring the right size needles. So I picked up a set and got back to my project. I love the Knitter's Pride wooden needles. I liked them so much that when I got home and wanted to start a hat project, I looked for the hat length set.These needles are smooth, fast and don't snag. Other wooden needles snag more delicate or loosely spun yarn. These are wonderful. The great thing about interchangeable needles is that you only purchase the set once and you can get different lengths of cord to make whatever size item you like. This is a much more economical approach than purchasing a new size of circular needles each time you have a new project. The carrying case that comes with the set is also easy to pack.After using these needles for the past 6 months, I recommend the style of needle because of its ease of use as well as portability and this particular brand is great because of the smoothness and speed.

Needles are great. A good median between steel and wood/bamboo needles. Able to control slippery yarns better than steel needles but doesn’t catch like owls/bamboo needles. Wish the cables were a bit more flexible (there’s some memory) but they’re not too bad. Overall a great set.

Son una agujas hermosas, muy prácticas, se teje super bien, me encanto que son cortas y eso las vuelve cómodas

I love these needles. The short ends are more comfortable to work with, for me, at least, and the cords are perfectly sized for hats. I have ordered a longer cord that fits the ends perfectly, and the join is nice and smooth. Beautiful needles.

Product was ok.. delivery was horrible. Would post video of delivery agent and his reaction.. but would probably get banned… Amazon or seller need to get rid of todays agent

Easy to use well made. A knitters dream

Baratas... aun no las uso
