In this video, I give an overview and my review of two Chiaogoo interchangeable needle sets.

The exact needles I show are these sets:
Red Lace Mini:
Twist Tip Interchangeable Set:

My needle gauge ring is by Malojos.

My nail polish is Gelish "Black Cherry Berry".

Staci, you forgot to tell everyone they come with a cord adapter for the large and small cords- they are extremely useful for bigger projects without having to buy longer cords. I LOVE my Chiagoo interchangeables! Great investment! Thanks for this review!!

i've been hemming and hawing about this set of interchangeables for eons and your review just pushed me over the edge. heaven help my wallet!

Chiaogo is my all time favorite needle, I’m trying to rebuild my knitting collection, I lost most everything in a house fire. At least I know what my favorite Needles are, so I don’t waist my money buying things I think will be great, and only use once.! Knitting has helped me keep my sanity these last few months!!

Staci, I think you forgot to say “I’m giving away the fabulous mini set”

I'm a needle collector of sorts and have tried just about every brand that has been manufactured in the last 40 years. I purchased the two sets you reviewed and have been working with mine for a while now. I can't say enough good things about them and consequently, they have become my "go-to" needles for every project. I find the point on them to be perfect, even for lace projects and the needle material (stainless steel) to be smooth but not too slippery. The cables are the icing on the cake! Being constructed of flexible, multi-strand, nylon-coated, memory-free steel cable provides just the right amount of structure - not too floppy, not too firm, with no memory which blows the competition away in my opinion!

Love these needles. I keep a 40"/000 in my notions case for emergency lifelines. The cord has never kinked or curled up. It has saved the life of many projects!

I’m thrilled that you did this awesome review.. ChaiGoo Red Lace needles are the absolute BEST needles on the market...IMHO.. The cords are amazing, and the joins are do smooth..no jump to get in the way.

I will turn 75 on September 11, of this year..Guess what my gift to myself will be!

I don’t knit socks, so will nit be buying that adorable mini set.. What a neat little package..

I have to say that I have always loved the case ChaiGoo needles live in. It is so stylish..

I’m very happy that you..an expert knitter love these wonderful needles..

I bought the interchangeable set a year ago and I'll thrilled! I have been knitting for 50+ years, but finally have time to spend more time now that I am retired. These needles give me so much pleasure. I wish I could buy a set for the each of my most loved knitters.

If you're thinking of buying these, DO IT! They are fantastic

I have both sets and love them, but my set came with 5” tips. The minis are also now available with 4 or 5” tips (purchased separately). Thanks for all of your terrific YouTube videos. I learned to knit from watching you. Made my first socks and first short sleeved sweater from your patterns with video support. I would not be a Knitter today without your help and it’s long past time I thanked you! 🌸

ChiaoGoo are the best needles ever and I have you, Staci, to thank because I bought a 60-inch ChiaoGoo needle from Skeino when I ordered a Miss Grace shawl kit after your demonstration. I was blown away by how flexible the cord was - no fighting with it at all!

[amazontrish]

HA HAAAA! A CONVERT (hopefully)!
I have been using the red lace tip set, that you have there in the larger case, for YEARS and they are always my "go-to" needle set!
I love those needless... I have 3 sets of interchangeable needles (because more is more) and I ALWAYS end up grabbing those or I end up transferring to those before I'm done with my project because I get fed up with my other sets.

I remember when you first got these and how excited you were. Guess what I have some now, yes I know it took a while but they are a tad expensive and I felt a luxury. How wrong was I. I love these and all the little quirks about using them. Thank you for your guidance and advice.

[countrymonkOSB]

Thanks for this incredible review. I've been using the larger set for a few months now, and am in love with their ease and simplicity of use. Thanks for agreeing with me! I love being right... :-)

[jeanchiusano]

Thank you for explaining everything so well. That’s why I got both sets. Thank you again. I just love them ❤

[bonnadowns]

I heard so much good about this chiaoGoo’s needles👌
Finally after watching Staci🙏💝 podcast, I will order it for sure🥰
Thanks you for sharing your experience with us🙏

I was just saying to my friend last night how I needed to get me some metal interchangeable needles for lace and such, and here you are ready made with the answer! Thanks again.

I recently received the large set for my birthday. These are now my absolute favorite knitting needles!

[wendyellis]

I just received my Chaio Goo “small” set from Amazon today. They cost $93, but with my points I paid under $50. The 5 inch tips are very comfortable for me, my hands are large. Originally, I was going to order the complete set, but I can’t remember the last time I used a needle size larger than 5 mm. I use my Knit Picks nickel coated brass 40 inch cables for magic loop, and their 6” dpn set for five gauge projects, and have been very happy with them. The great thing about the Chaio Goo set is that I can always add additional sizes, cables, and joins. I absolutely love knitting with the various fixed length Chaio Goo lace needles in my tool kit, so finally broke down and got the interchangeable set.

As a relatively new knitter I bit the bullet and bought the Chiaogoo set and have been nothing but impressed. In an earlier video you had mentioned your preference for 4" needles vs. 5" and I got the 4" version. I have made multiple hats and scarves with these and have never had an issue. I simply love them. I have been buying individual sets of Bamboo DPNs for finishing work, so I don't have a full line of sets to match all of the sizes yet. Thank you so much for your videos as they have helped me learn to love knitting.
