Clover Chibi darning Needles, 6.2" Height x 2.1" Length x 0.8" Width, Blue/White

These needles come in a variety of sizes great for all but the very chunky yarns. I appreciate the container. The hole is great for attaching a ring or light chain to keep in within reach in a project bag or on a keychain. I just loop some yarn through and clip it to a pegboard or one of the hooks I attach in the inside of my project bags.

I love this set. Works great for all projects. Best part is the quality and the three different sizes! Can add smaller buttons to my crochet projects easily now.

This is a must-have set of darning needles for anyone who is just starting to knit or crochet, and a great addition to the established knitter or crocheter's arsenal of tools (like Clover Knit Mate Knitting Accessories Set ).Makes a great stocking stuffer!The case comes with three different sized straight steel darning needles, one that can double as a yarn needle to weave in your loose ends or for the kitchener stitch. The screw-on lid has a little tab with a hole that you can attach a jump ring to (I'd recommend a small gauge split ring, like a small key chain) which would allow you to attach it to a Chums Carabiner Keychain to clip onto your knitting bag with your Clover Thread Cutter Pendant, Antique Silver or other tools like a Clover Yarn Threader, or hang it on a chain around your neck to make it easy to find. The chubby case is easy to locate in the bottom of your knitting bag (My favorite is the Bagsmith Black Project Bag Knitting Craft Collapsible Storage Stand) and the screw-on lid keeps those needles where they belong, away from delicate fingers when you go digging around in your notions bag looking for something!Additionally, the case is roomy enough to add more needles to and could even hold some small stitch markers and a safety pin if you need to travel light with your project.

I keep my darning and crochet/knitting needles separate from my sewing needles. I always lose track of the few little needles I need for finishing my crochet and knitting projects. Alone, they get lost in even organized storage from those crafts. So I love this little container for them. It is easy to open and close and closes completely, doesn't pop open, wasn't made cheap. You can run string through the little side hole if you want to attach this to something or wear around your neck. You could make a necklace with one of these and one of those little collapsible pairs of scissors that has a hole for tying onto string, so that you're always ready to go with yarn crafts. I just find it makes it easy to toss the needles in with a few skeins of yarn and carry a project around easier. The color stands out too, so although I'm usually a fan of neutral looking things, I'm glad this came in an easily identifiable green. This would make a great gift for a craft person, because even after working in a craft store and teaching, I had never seen this, so it's something a crafter wouldn't necessarily already have.

I got the Clover Chibi because I was looking for a metal tapestry needle to replace the cheap plastic ones that come for free with many knitting and crochet supply kits. I realized I didn't have anything good to keep a tapestry needle in, so the Clover Chibi was a way to fulfill both wishes.I was surprised at how much nicer it was to use a metal needle when I got this set. Weaving in my yarn ends or joining two pieces of knit or crochet work with this needle is *so* much easier and more precise when using a metal needle!The case is absolutely adorable. It's small enough to fit into the palm of your hand, yet spacious enough to easily hold the 3 needles it comes with. There's room to spare, so you could put some additional needles into it if you like. It's solidly constructed and has a tight-fitting lid, and although I haven't tested it, I'll bet it would float. It has a little plastic protruding ring off of the lid that you could attach a keyring or chain to.I toss my little Chibi in with my other knitting and crochet supplies and fish around for it when needed. Love it, love it, love it!

Possibly overpriced but convenient all the same. It's nice how you can put the container on a cord. You can fit all kinds of little things in there.

In spite of the fact I keep swearing I will get a little case for my crochet hooks and notions, I never seem to get around to it, as I don't want to add another lumpy object to the bag I keep my projects in. So I tend to end up with a Ziploc baggie with extra hooks and bits and scraps in it.As you can imagine, that doesn't work out well with yarn needles unless you keep the original packaging envelope they came with, which is a pain to deal with.I liked the needles that came with this for finishing off my projects, but even better was the little case for the needles. Easy to find and fish out of the bottom of my bag, too big to be easily lost, but compact enough to not get in the way in there. Even more important, no rough edges that snag on my projects. Additionally, you could fit several more needles or even some small notions like buttons in that case.This was a great little purchase that I am very happy with.
