Giving in to the Addi Turbo Legend!

Addi Turbos are a legendary circular with humongous word of mouth. They are produced in Germany by Skace, and feature a unique finish, a very smooth join, and a very flexible cable. I've always thougth 'yeh, yeh, sure'. I was wrong.

It's taken us quite a long time to add Turbos to our needle mix - I'll be the first to admit it - I've never like metal needles - cold, hard, and unfriendly. But over the past 3 years I've not stopped hearing from people about how great Addis are. I resisted. Skacel recently sent me a pair to try out. You can see the results above. These needles are unbelievable. It is not a struggle to find the loop, its easy to get over the join, they don't fight with your fingers, and the stitches come out wonderfully even. The best part for me, really, is not having to fight to get the tip into the the loop or stitch - this is something I struggle with, and every pair of needles definitely has its own personality. Plus, I was afraid that the Addis would be too slippery. I am not a speed knitter. These are perfect. Go ahead, try some! You'll be delighted!
