Love these for DK socks, game changer for me. I don’t love magic loop, DPNs are kinda fiddley for me for socks, and 9” circulars are so tiny, 1” long needle it causes hand cramps. I cast right onto the bigger needle, join in the round and knit with the bigger needle in my right hand. Love it, bought 2 pairs, and one for my mother in law and daughter. Definitely recommend for socks and sleeves.

I really like these needles. They are smooth and easy to use. They do have a blunter end but I have no problems doing a m1r or a m1l or decreases. I’d buy again for sure

I really enjoy 9" circular needles for making socks. That said, when I saw these I thought I would see if these would improve my speed. In my opinion, the tips aren't sharp enough and my yarn slides off these much too easily! I do however, like that these are a bit longer and my hands don't get cramps. I'll keep using them, but I really don't think they are worth the $22 I spent on them.

like these and they definitely have a place in my needle collection but still find magic loop preferable for smaller, more fidelly items.

A sock knitting podcaster recommended this needle. It has one end needle longer and pointier than the other. The little bit extra length makes the needle easier to hold than my older 8" circular. Of course depending on how you hold your needle(s) you'd interpret 'easier' differently! And because only one end of the circular is ever used if you're knitting in the round (which you do for socks), you don't need both ends to be long and pointy. The other advantage is that there's only one 'needle' change per round - helpful for colorwork. I used to use (and still do when the sock is plain-ish) 5 double pointed needles. Floats have a chance to cause awkwardness with all those needle changes per row. The single needle round is also a lot faster since you just whiz along, if that's important or helpful to you.

Smooth like the Chiaogoo and pointy like the hiyahiya, this set of tiny circs made quick work of a sock. The benefit of these over the other two mentioned is the one long needle end. If I hold a 9 or 10 inch circ, my hands cramp up holding the tiny little work. The one longer needle allows an easier grip so my hands don't get tired or sore.Plus like all addi needles, the smooth slide of the yarn across the needle is unmatched.

based on the selling price of other knitting needles this item was extremely overpriced.

I just got these today and have been using them for about an hour. The short version of this review is they are a little uncomfortable for me to use and not as fast as flexible double points. You also cannot try your socks on with these needles due to the length which was not something I considered before buying them. The benefit however is losing the “ladders” that FDPNs leave.I am very new to knitting socks and I started with magic loop in hopes to not have to deal with regular DPNs and also to not have to invest in FDPNs. I tried magic loop for a while but my longest needles did not have the smoothest join so lo and behold I am investing in Addi flexiflips. Which I love! Highly recommend those. The downside again to FDPNs is the ladders. I had heard about these Addi 10” circulars with the shorter needle to help accommodate more of the cable and decided to give them a try. They’re a little awkward at first. I found a way to hold them that works for me, specifically the shorter needle. However it is a little uncomfortable and causing two different parts of my fingers to rub against the stitches in such a way that is making me want to switch back to the flexiflips. I debated on removing a star from that because it really could be just my technique or the length of my fingers (longer side of average) but I think if I had even one extra half inch might honestly make a bit of a difference.How they compare to flexiflips as far as structure: the needles are also very very smooth and feel high quality like the flexiflips in fact they’re exactly the same except for the length. In the attached photo showing three needles, the longest needle is the sharper end of a flexifip. It looks like these circulars are similar to the flexiflips in that there is a duller end (short needle) and a sharper end (long needle) and visually they look the same as the flexiflips. The cord is the same material, and the joins are the same.One last note about the needles that is more peculiar than anything: despite all of their similarities, the size is printed/laser etched on the metal on the flexiflips, and printed in black on the cord on the circulars. The size on my flexiflips say “2.5” but on the circulars it says “2.50.”
