Gave in and bought short tips for hats
(4 out of 5)
My gauge changes when I magic loop, and sometimes depending on hat size I need to cast on fewer stitches and can't squeak by with regular size needles and the short cord. I'm glad the size is etched onto the metal, and the tips are different colors for different sizes, because the white size information on the needles themselves rubs off right away.
I gotthesetipsso I could use them instead of dpns. I found my regular tips were ungainly when working in the round and I want to work “ in the round shawls”. I think these will work well without having to make the magic loop which I am equally uncomfortable with.
I normally adore interchangeable tips, but this set would not lock onto the cord. They wouldn't screw on correctly and therefore it was a waste of money. Lost the receipt, of course.
I got short cables long ago, not realizing I couldn't use them with the regular length needles. I wanted to knit a hat quickly, so I got the 7s to save from magic looping the whole hat. It was definitely faster, but I still found it took some effort to get the stitches around to the left needle. They were pretty stretched out, and this was a man's hat, I think about 90CO stitches. As always I do love the Dreamz needles and the sharpness of the point compared to others.
