Clover 340 Chibi with Jumbo Darning Needles

Needed to replace one that disappeared. This is a great tool for people who work with yarn. The large bent tip needles are smooth, have large eyes, and are high quality. The little case is sturdy and a convenient size and shape to carry in a tool bag for your project.

I absolutely love these needle sets. Needles come in a great case to store them in. I have a couple sets of these as I tend to leave them them in project bags.

I had been using straight needles to finish my knit/crochet projects until I saw a friend using one of these. I bought two sets right away. I used my new needle last night and it was SO MUCH EASIER than a straight needle. The bent tip grabs the stitch you want without you having to push your hand down to finagle it. The gold-ish color of this needle made it easy to see, the size made it easy to manage, the size of the eye made it easy to 'thread' the yarn through, and the smoothness lets it slide through your stitches.Someone left a review that it felt "cheap". I disagree. I have used plastic embroidery needles in the past, and this is not plastic and does not feel unsubstantial. I like the size and had no trouble with it on my light-worsted-weight project. Perhaps for really thin yarns it might be too big, but it probably depends more on the tightness and elasticity of the stitch/yarn in question.I love the screw-top case the needles come in. I have one for my home bag and one for my on-the-road bag. I am so happy with my purchase!

Holds up well

This time I was buying for the case and the needles were the pleasant surprise.With my original purchase (Clover Chibi with Darning Needles) I wanted the needles and found out how wonderful the case was. It's small, but holds the needles I want. Plus it's brightly colored so it's easy to spot when it's not quite where I'm looking for it. The top is a nice screw on, so no unexpected pop-offs and lost needles. There is even a small loop/hole to run a thin lanyard through if desired. So, last time I wanted the needles (which were fine) but fell in love with the holder.This time I was after a second set (I've taken to keeping some hooks, needles and yarn in various locations...sigh, what an addictive hobby this has become), so I bought these rather than repeating the other set. I REALLY love the needles--light but strong and the gold color is easy on the eyes when running through the yarn. The bent tips I found really make weaving through stitches super easy.All in all a very nice item that makes finishing projects much easier.HIGHLY recommended!JTG

These work so good. I love the little case too.

The needles are great and work well for my projects, but the needle case that came with it was bent when I opened the packaging. I'm not sending it back since the needles are fine and are what I care about, it's just a little annoying that the case is not functional.

I like that the needles have a little bend towards the point. That makes it easier to pry up a stitch. Great purchase!
