I have been looking for reviews on this set I bought the blue color both the long and short needles and was unhappy with the yarn catching I am a loose knitter but with your review and the swivel that I did not know it had I have notice that my cables dont get bets our of shape like with the other circular needles. This is my first set of interchangeables and I am loving the flexibility. Thank you for the thorough and informative review.
So glad you enjoyed it! Ahead and order the Needles from my site, and I’ll send them out to you as soon as they come. I will be among the first shop to receive them.!
This particular needle set is so new in my area that No one has it. I love Lykke needles I have several sets. I plan on buying this set as well when it becomes available.
I just got a set of these for Christmas, they're my very first circular needles EVER since I learned on straight needles only from my grandmother. They have absolutely changed my knitting and got me to break out of my comfort zone with bigger (for me, more useful) projects. I've even been trying new patterns that I usually wouldn't have tried since it's easier to see what I'm doing without everything squished onto a straight needle. They're exactly the right texture for me (not as slippery as metal, not as rough as my bamboo needles) and I can easily switch between projects with them. Obv I could go on and on with these, but at the end of the day I would say anyone on the fence should ABSOLUTELY buy these. They're much more cost effective than just buying a bunch of decent straight wooden needles. TLDR: Buy these needles, buy these needles, buy these needles.
I am happy to find this video because I have ordered a Lykke 3.5" Interchangeable Needle Set for the first time and glad to see what it looks like. I only have one circular needle for making a beanie and the Addi Brass Lace Tip Circular is not my favourite.
The Addi brass lace gets tarnished abd sticky, doesn’t it. I do like those lace tips, which are the same tips they have on the Rockets and the Rockets squares.
Can confirm, much smoother than my bamboo needles and I'm currently knitting with fairly rough yarn (with metallic thread running through) so if they were gonna snag this yarn would definitely do it. I'd never have used this yarn with my bamboo needles.

Excellent! Let me know if you would like to pre-order it.

But you can polish them and they’ll be smooth and lovely again
Do they have the size in the needle
There is no link for the 3 1/2 “ set with cables for 16” needles

I love the bamboo needles, how do these compare as to point and slickness?
These are much much smoother than bamboo.

I have found that the swivel isn't worth the snag on any needle. User beware!
Yeah. I’m not a fan either
