Celley 18 Pairs Smooth Bamboo Knitting Needles with Pouch (9 3/4 Inches Length, Sizes US 0 to US 15)

They are perfect

You get what you pay for. The bigger needles are decent, but the smaller ones aren’t very sturdy. The end caps have fallen off of some of them and I haven’t even used them yet.

It’s a great set of knitting needles for a beginner. I was able to make my scarf quickly! However I had put too much tension on my knitting needles with my yarn and I bent my needles.

They are nice , but some of them are warped and the tips are blunt . Not a bad purchase for beginners.

They are light weight and easy to handle.

These are great if you're just trying to do a few small projects or want to teach a group of people how to knit. The thicker ones are reasonably sturdy and the thinner ones bend after a bunch of use but are still usable. The price is unbeatable and the carrying bag is cute. The only major downside is that my needles came with some glue/resin still stuck to them in places and had a few splinters, so I had to pet/stroke each needle slowly, individually to test for rough patches and then sand them before using them with yarn. If you're willing to do that or just working on busywork projects and nothing fancy, this will do.

Were great when teaching my grand children.

I ordered these knitting needles and am VERY happy with them. I even received about 3 extra pairs of different sizes than expected (not US sizes). I like that, just in case a pattern calls for it I'll be ready. The needles are about 10" long. Not only did they come in a nice little bag but each pair came individually wrapped so they are all very smooth, no nicks at all. AND a little card was included listing the corresponding US sizes which was helpful because they come in mm sizes. So I took someone's tip here in the reviews and wrote the US size in permanent marker. I'm currently knitting a lace project with a pair of the needles without any problems. I believe them to be a great buy and if this company gets any 14" long needles I will buy them as well.

I like bamboo needles i can get on with them fineI do not like metalThey were very reasonable also Well done

Knitting baby's clothes. Useful for all types of wool

I like the bamboo and they are very smooth to knit with but the needles are very short at under 10”. My fault I should have ready the product details properly. Personally, I find them difficult to use. Especially if knitting a garment.

So there’s a lot of value here for the money, I bought this set to test whether or not I’d enjoy knitting with wood (and then invest in higher quality in my most used sizes). My needles were not bent or broken, and the value is there even if you ignore the smaller half of the needles. The smallest ones are basically very long, thin toothpicks, so I would have a metal backup needle before starting a project on those, as they most likely will break. I wish the sizes were written on the ends of the needles, it makes picking out a pair quite difficult. To get around that I coloured the matching needle ends with coloured alcohol ink markers (like Sharpies or Copics) but acrylic paint would work. You could also just write the size on them with a black fine tip sharpie. I do like that they included a card that translated the mm sizes to US sizes as most patterns use the US sizing, though I wish they had written these on the needles as well.As for the sizes themselves, well, they’re not as accurate as my metal needles. Putting these needles through my gauge:The 2mm are larger than the gauge and fit closer to 2.25.2.25mm is a very tight squeeze but is true to size.2.5 is closer to 2.75. This isn’t a big deal because almost no patterns will require it as there is no US equivalent.2.75 is true to size. I’d use both the 2.5 and 2.75 as a US 2 needle.3mm measures as a comfortable 3.25 in my gauge (not loose). Again, this is not a standard US size so it won’t impact most patterns.3.25 is a VERY tight squeeze as 3.25, so I’d say it’s a tiny bit big but true enough to size, I’d be comfortable using both the 3 and 3.25mm as a US 3 needle.3.5mm measures as 3.75mm. If I needed to use this as a US 4 needle I’d need to knit tightly, which might snap this needle, so I’d say this set has no good US 4 option.3.75 is a tight fit but it does fit.4mm is true to size.4.5mm does not fit at all but is too loose to be a 5, I’d say it’s between a 7 and 8 in size so adjust your stitch tension accordingly.The larger sizes are all true enough to gauge, though the 9 and 10mm are a tight fit. I’m not worried.So overall, this is a great starter set for wood. I admittedly have no experience with higher end wooden needles so I’m not sure if the sizing issues are normal, it’s easy to make precisely sized metal or plastic needles but not as easy with wood, especially at this price point. My 5mm Clover bamboo needles are also very very tight in my gauge so this might just be normal with bamboo. If you’re looking to make socks or use small yarns, I’d look into metallic needles, I’m fully expecting everything under 4mm in this set to be too fragile for heavy use. I’d also recommend you gauge your needles when you receive them as yours might not at all measure like mine did! Again, it might be completely normal measurements for bamboo, but it’s good information to know so you can adjust how tight or loose you need to knit to fit your pattern.

They were good value, being that it came with so many sizes and a little carrying case.I'm not a manufacturer or a knitter, but many of the needles weren't straight.I don't know what effects it can have while using them, but when presented as a gift it was a little disappointing.
