Hello Barbara, thank you for this lovely video. I must just say something about the keys to remove the cable from the needle. I got stuck once because I couldn´t find the key to remove a cable once and my mum said "use a pin", after doubtfully looking at her, I did and lo and behold, it worked. Since then, I haven´t been scared about not having a key because a pin or a safety pin, work exactly the same....... and everyone has a saftey pin at home! The necklace is great! It´s a great idea!!!!

Yes, and Paperclips work, and needles with the right diameters, wire which is thin and strong works,... I've got my little key at my neclace and so it's allways with me. Another one I made firm on a stitchmarker and so it's never lost. When I begin to knit a new project I allways put a key with a stitchmarker to the project's first few stitches and you though you get more than one key with a set , or one with every cable you'll haeve enough of them to have one at every projekt. My friends smile at me because of the needlekey on my neclace first but after a while they know why I do so. You can put it on your housekeys e. g. or somewhere else whre it's with you when you need it. We women aren't as silly as some people may think, we find places so we can knit and change wherever and whenever we want. Tren't we?

Love your channel, just found it today. You are so cheerful and animated and full of personality, make it both fun and informative to watch. I'm sure Knitter's Pride is very happy with your demo video. I have a Knitter's Pride set of bamboo needles which I like very much. If it wasn't that another knitter said that "Hey, you can knit with two circulars and just use one size smaller on the other end. Your stitches come out the size of the needle you knit with." -- I might have decided I had to have another set to do two circular knitting. Wonderful idea for hats with bulky yarn, made several this winter season and glad not to have to had invested in other needles to afford yarn. RE Vegan: The more we save the Earth, is good for all of us. It just shows me that Knitter's Pride has their hearts in the right place. And I try to eat with a conscience as my husband had cancer so we both eat this way now so he does not have a reoccurrence. We've both lost weight but that was not the object, it was avoiding the cancer.

I purchased the 4 inch Ginger set. The case is red/brown instead of blue. I made an Afghan that had a lot of cables so I purchased the magnetic necklace to hold my cable needle. It sure helped keep track of that needle! My size 3 and 4 needles both broke on the tip when I was casting on. My LYS did replace them, because it was within a year. Just an FYI to be careful with the smaller needles.

Thank you for the reviews. I’d been wondering about the new Gingers. I love the case, so much nicer than the plastic one with my Knitters Pride/knitPro interchangeable set. And I love the necklace! Awesome idea, that might’ve saved me from losing my fave marker down the vent on my car’s dashboard. 😱 Pitfalls of car knitting I guess. I lusted after Zings last year, but ended up with Chiagoos, which I do like. I did get the Zings DPN set since I didn’t have any, and find the tips much less dangerous for me. Now I’m feeling the need for a good wood set! 🤔

I love this needle set. I also like the set with the different colored needles. I have a set of Chiaogoo interchangeable needles. My lace projects kept slipping stitches so I switched to a knitters pride bamboo needle. I also have one set of knitters pride wood dreamz circular needles. I have trouble with interchangeable needles though because the join comes undone half-way through a row. I use the pin thingy.

You not only showed your new fantastic set but you entertained me so much ! Thank you! You're wonderful and your ideas to use different things for others remind me on me myself. You are a great person all in all! God bless you, my sister! I'm from Germany and I have Karbonz, Options, Synfonies, Natures, Acrylic and the Royals . Only the Royals aren't as well as all the others to ME, because of the little hole at the tips that scratch a little bit with the other needle. May be one can become familiar with this, me not really. When I'm able to hold my Royals a bit more rolled I don't notice it, but I don't want to put my eyes on the tips doing it right.I just wanna knit and that's fine with all the others. If they cme to Germany I'll buy one needle size and when it's way better than one of mine I'll buy the set. They lok very similar to the Nature set, but my cables are with shiny ends as the needles, too. Yours, in black, with brown cables, look great! Be blessed!

@@WatchBarbaraKnit a lot of people write that wood and metall don't fit together. I had only 3 needles which weren't knittable (at all 32 needles incl DPNs). But , yes, it can be. It's the same with Karbonz. When ok, they grab the yarn a bit more than wood. But the wonderful tip makes worth it so much! These I use when in former times I thought to need Royals. My Royals so sleep the whole time - unused! I filled them up from 3,0 mm short and long to 15,0 mm and bought the DPNs. For nothing. I'd like to sell them away to a person who would use it. They all are fine where tip goes to the needle. I prooved it hard!

So I first thought, too! But when you think of höw many different range and different longth of your needles it is , you see you've got more than 70 different needles with this one AND THEN you can make one with 2" and the other one is e.g.6" etc... I never needed another one since I've got a komplet set! And I can park my begun project, unscrew the needles, put a new cable on the needles and make another one! I bought some cables more and I can work as many, as long and as made with big or smallest yarn I want. After a while it begins to be cheaper as if you allways have to buy new needles in good quality. See the very fine quality that makes you love knitting, with no pain on your hands! 8ait 1/2 a year and lay money aside, then the get cheaper and then: get it!!! It's worth it, I swear if you want! I'm handicaped and have very less money but it's worth every single cent/dollar! Really! You'll see knitting goes faster and easier and you'll have allways with you what you need. Please, think twice, this time! Be blessed!

The keys for those cables run away very far to another universe. I did see on another knitting KZbinrs channel were you can use those metal lightbulbs shaped safety pens instead of those keys. I tried it out and it does work. Also, you’re adorable in this one! Your personality just jives with me so well. I really like that magnetic necklace. I might have to look into getting one of those. I wish the set that you’re talking about came in metal. I am such a tight knitter that I snap the tips of the wood needles. I really liked this review.

i've always been a crocheter but have been interested in knitting for a while now. I've always knitted on metal needles because that's all i had 😅this set of wooden needles looks beautiful and i love the amount of things it comes with but i've also looked into the zing needle set as well since they're metal. I've done some research and apparently wooden needles feel more "grippy" than metal needles do and i'm a bit worried that could be a problem since i'm used to the slippyness of the metal ones. since you use both i wanna ask if the feeling is that much different and which ones you prefer more and have continued using? by the way, you are an absolute joy to listen to and you made this review very entertaining for me to watch, thank you! ☺

Personally I use metal needles 95% of the time because I am a tight knitter. It really is a personal preference.

I really like that necklace! I lose those all the time. My sofa eats them. LOL I've been wanting a review of those needles. I think you have the most thorough on you tube right now as last week I couldn't find much about them. They are so so pretty. I usuall prefer metal needles. I was also looking at the set that has shorter ones with 2 16 in cords for hats. Are the tips similar to the laminated wood knitters pride Dreamz?

I just checked the website and it appears yes, they are the same laminated wood as the Dreamz. If you do a lot of hats 16 in cords make total sense!

Hi Barbara! Thank you for your review. Do you think other Knitter’s Pride needles will work with the ginger cords? My 3.25mm needle snapped and I’d rather get a KP needle from a different set to save some money than get another ginger 3.25mm. Thanks!

Hey dear! This is one of the funniest reviews ive seen 😂😂 im thinking about purchasing a set of interchangeable needles.

that actually would be a great idea to add in the set a couple of "stitch markers"with the needle sizes available in the set engraved in it, so you could put it on the cable before putting the stopper and using your needle for another project.

Vegan leather is a faux leather Artificial. There are three types two are made of plastic PU n PVC. There are also plant leather which is better for the environment. Like they use pineapple leaves.or fruits and vegetables. Hope this helps

Thank you Barbara for an exceptional review on this ginger set. I’ll be 62 tomorrow March 30 so I’ll hop onto Amazon and buy this For me now. May I ask how much you paid for your set? On a scale from 1 to 10, 10 being the best, please wait the knitters pride ginger set. The set is currently $118 on Amazon. Is that a fair deal? 🧶
@WatchBarbaraKnit
@WatchBarbaraKnit 3 жыл бұрын
I believe that I mentioned in the video, and if I did not I apologize. The set was sent to me by the company to do the review. So I did not pay for it. Around $100 is what I would expect for a set with this range of needle sizes and accessories. I don't know that I can give you a rating, but I think it's a great set.
