I use KnitPicks and Addis. I pretty much only use nickel-plated needles, because they are so fast.

I have some Addi's, but I'm definitely all over the nickel plated needle thing. It's just soooo fast and easy to knit with them.

Ok, these are now in my shopping cart, but they don't come with the shorter cords, would I be able to use my Denise cords with these tips, if I needed a shorter cord?

THANKS!

I had THREEEEE sets of denise needles, one that i bought, one my mother gifted me with, and one i bought when KP was clearing their stock. I loved the Denise needles. the only thing i did not like was the super thick cord. if their cord was thinner like the KPOs i would have never made the switch. I was very sad when i put my last set of Denise needles in the mail to travel to their new home. I almost went out immediately and bought another set to make myself feel better about it...lol

but i have, essentially, two sets of the KPOs now (with duplicate needles in most of the smaller sizes) so i have gotten over it!



okay and i just read your question. some have successfully shortened their own cords on them... i always just use 2 circs for circular knitting... and a lot got the longer cords and are using them for magic loop!
