Clover Bamboo 9" Single Point Knitting Needles, 1 Each

I have never liked metal needles - too slippery and sometimes too heavy. The wooden needles I've tried aren't smooth enough. I finally tried the bamboo and they are exactly what a knitting needle should be...for me, at least. They're smooth but not slippery and they are so light they're a pleasure to work. The Clover is the only brand I've tried but I doubt any other could make them any better. I'll be replacing all my needles with Clovers, and that's not too hard to do since the prices are so affordable.
