lullabymoon: (teacup)

I was hoping for a little advice about interchangeable circular needle sets as I'm looking to buy but I'm pretty much a novice. I mean I know how they work but I have no idea what constitutes a good connection or the like.

What I'm looking for is a bamboo set, in mm, that's reasonably priced (in the UK) and that perhaps I can add to over time. Does any one have any recommendations or makes to avoid, or any advice in what I should be looking out for?

Thanks in advance.

I used knitpicks harmony interchangeables exclusively for ~3 years. Eventually, I gave up on them because the glue kept drying out, and they came apart. When that happened while I was on the subway, it was the last straw.

I then moved on to Addi clicks, which are quite expensive, so don't meet your criteria. I looked at the KA switch, and they were also a contender. (I fell pretty to the ability to change tips without tools. That has come in handy since, let me tell you.)
