Does anyone have more than one set of interchangeable circs?

So most of you know I have the Addi Clicks, which I love.  My family keeps asking me for Christmas gift ideas and I honestly can't think of anything I really want. 

The only possibility I've come up with is maybe asking for a set of Harmonies.  I so don't need them, but in my heart of hearts I think I still prefer wood needles and I had a hard time picking between the two products.

Am I crazy?

I'd rather be rock climbing or playing volleyball

Re: Does anyone have more than one set of interchangeable circs?

  • Oh, go for it! I prefer metal needles with some yarns, and bamboo/wood with others- so, it's nice to have both on hand! The Harmony sets are great- very flexible cables (even better than Addis, IMO!) and nice sharp tips. They are NOT the best quality- but, I've never, not once, had a problem with KP sending me replacements for tips or cables that break. Once was even more than a year out. Love them!
  • I have two sets too.  It is nice if I have one longer term project on the size needle I need to make a quicker smaller project- I can pull out the other set. I have found having a second set useful for a lot of situations. And having the choice between wood and metal is also something I like!

    Really, not the best quality, huh?  Why do you say that? Any recs?

    I had also considered the Colonial Rosewoods last time around.

    I haven't used Addis, but regarding the KP needles,  I think the fault lies with quality control.  Personally, I think they have the best design--sharp points, smooth but not slick, etc, but more defects get through than should.  They make up for it with amazing customer service, but should pay a little more attention to the manufacturing side.

  • I can't speak for the Harmony but I have the metal knitpicks interchangeables and I haven't had any problems with them.

    I asked for the Harmony DPN's for christmas though.
