[Nfb-krafters-korner] interchangeable circular needles?.

[Eileen Scrivani]

That's right, there are a lot of makers of interchangeable needles on the 
market now.  Recently Addi came out with their version, but I saw the set 
priced at approx $110!  So lucky for me it wasn't tempting enough with that 
price tag.  Metal hurts my hands.  I know there are those who love the 
Addi's for the slickness of the metal and they say it helps them knit 
faster.  After I use metal my hands are in agony.

The Addi's as I understand it click in place rather than screw on.

The plastic Denise are in my humble opinion another really nice set.  They 
are not cheap because they are plastic.  In fact all components in the 
Denise set are made right here in America.  Here too, th ndl tips click in 
place, and don't screw onto the cables.
