Clover 3121 Tapestry Needle Set Chibi, Bent Tip , Beige

These are advertised as Chibi but the package doesnt say Chibi when you get it. I really like the tube that you can store them in and the bent tip makes them sometimes easier to use. But the eye is smaller than the straight tip ones I already own so they are harder to thread with many yarns, even worsted weight. I dont know how you would ever get a chunky yarn threaded easily. I would not purchase these again and would just stick with the straight tips I have. There seem to be 2 sizes, one smaller than the other 2.

Since moving, I misplaced my other needles and needed to replace them. I prefer the blunt bent tip needles for picking up stitches to seam. Ive been knitting (38 yrs), spinning (25 yrs), and weaving (25 yrs) for a long time.

To be honest, I bought this for the case. Plastic not brittle. Love it.

Great set! Love the tube to put needles in for safe keeping. Needles are made of good quality materials. Three different sizes of needles.

These make quick work of weaving in ends of fingering-dk weight yarns and come in a tube that will slot conveniently alongside the rest of your knitting storage. They might work for even thicker yarns, but I have not tried them for those. The larger size set from the same line is also very useful for bulky/superbulky yarns.

Love these bent tipped needles for finishing work on knitting. The nice screw-top case is small enough to pop into my knitting bag, but not so small I lose it. But, Im a klutz, so I do lose needles and I break the top off the case after a few years, so every five years or so I buy a new one. Happily. Wouldnt be without one.

These are so nice I will never have to buy them again during my lifetime, Im sure. Love the case (chibi) they come in! Thank you so much!

What a big difference the slight bend in the tip of these tapestry needles makes in constructing a knitted garment! I now look forward to completing the work of finishing! The container is also a bonus, as the screw-on lid stays on securely, and cannot be easily dislodged, which would result in losing the needles. It also has a hole in the side of the lid, so if you keep a cord hanging from your neck with other tools during your knitting, you can also hang this holder from the same cord. A small item, but very handy!

These are considerably smaller than Chibi. They werent packaged properly either. The plastic container wasnt even inside the wrapper, which seems a little suspicious. If youre working with heavier yarn of 5 or above, you might have trouble threading the eye of these needles.
