I ran across these in my stash recently. Don’t recall where they came from. But, I don’t need them. If you knit or want to learn, then add a comment below. I’ll wait til May 5 (some fun for Cinco de Mayo) and draw a name for the winner. I’ll throw in at least one crochet hook too – maybe not a new one, but a good one.
CHIAOGOO SINGLE POINT KNIT NEEDLES SIZE 3, 14 INCH
The hooks I’m offering are in slightly different packaging. They’re size 3 and are 14 inches long. Needles made in China from “Chinese Moso Bamboo, one of the largest and strongest bamboo species in the world.”
Leave me a comment – and Good Luck!
My mother recently passed away and she loved to knit esp. dishcloths. i rec’d 1 set of her knitting needles – had to share with other family members- and and now learning to knit in her memory and finding it relaxing and a closeness to her. i also lost my job 6 months ago so these knitting needles would help me out. i also have been crocheting for over 30 yrs now so i have the yarn to knit but not the needles.
Hi JD
Mmmmmmmm those needles look wonderful! I have a set of bamboo dpn’s that are now my most favorite sock needles. I’d LOVE to try out other styles!
hugs and thanks,

I love crocheting & I have always wanted to learn to knit. This would really give me the incentive to start, hope I win. Thank-you for the chance.
I’ve heard that bamboo needles are good for arthritic hands, which I have plus fibromyalgia. Knitting and crocheting are what keep me going each day, and reading what my fellow knit and crochet – a – holics are up to! Thanks for your contest offer!
Hey JD, I would like to enter the contest, too. I taught myself to crochet about 9 years ago and have loved it ever since, now I am trying to teach myself to knit. I have heard that the yarn slides easier on the bamboo needles and would to try them out.
Thanks!
Hi Jd.. I finally found this contest for the needles.. I would love them.. thank you so much for doing this.. I hope I win.. lol.. hugs…Nancy
My favorite needles are bamboo. Would love to win these to add to my limited collection.
Hi! I crochet, but I’m learning to knit. I have some bamboo hooks and I love them! I would love to win these needles because I think they will be great to knit with.
I finally saved enough to get one pair and they are really nice. My knitting doesn’t fall off and yet it slides easily when I want it to~!
Hello! I am a long time crocheter from NC. I love the look of knit as well, but have never learned. While my foot injury is healing, I have decided to learn to knit. I am having trouble keeping the yarn on properly on the metal needles & think this type of needle would be easier to use. Your site is great!
I would love to win these knitting needles because I enjoy knitting just as much as crocheting.Thank you very much for offering them.
Hey JD, Please put my name in for the contest…thanks for helping all of us who need it. 🙂
I would love to win the knitting needles. A long time ago, I signed up for free lessons in knitting, crochet, macrame and embroidery. The crochet stuck but am relearning and trying to be better at knitting.
I have been wanting some bamboo needles!I sure hope you will add my name to the hat and I hope I win a set! My Great Aunt Pearl taught me to crochet when I was 6. I bought a book and have been teaching myself to knit. Have a great day!
HI Jd, This is a wonderful contest…but i dont think you would be able to send the needles to india ..is it?I dont get bamboo needles here and have checked out in many stores…Nevertheless its a fascination for me to try knitting with bamboo needles…Awe site since i get a lot of tips in crocheting and jewellery designing from here..Keep up the gud work!

This is an awesome prize! I am trying to build up my knitting needle supply!
I have been knitting and crocheting for more years than I care to admit, but have not had the pleasure of using bamboo so would welcome the chance to try and maybe you will persuade an old dog to try new tricks!
I love anything wood. I bet these would feel great in my hands.
JD – thanks for the books through the CP Recycle Contest. Next thing is to try thread. After that… Knitting is the next thing on my list to pick back up. Thanks!!
Please include me in the drawing! I am trying to relearn knitting and would LOVE to have these needles! Thanks so much! This is a super wonderful thing to do!!
I love, love crochet, but have really wanted to learn to knit for a while. Just haven’t yet taken the step of buying needles, there are too many choices in the stores and I don’t really know which to choose to start. I’m ready to learn, have a huge stash of yarn, but which needles to start with is the next question. Winning this contest would solve that problem.
I have heard from several people that bamboo sticks are the ebst to work with. I’m a newbie at this & still trying to figure out the best way to start off. And it seems as though these needles would be a good start for me. If you or anyone has any recommendations I’d really appreciate it. Hopefully I might win these needle sets.
Good Luck to everyone!
