Great short tips.
I knit primarily with interchangeable needles. I love these. keep them well maintained and humidified and they'll last you a while. I recommend natural beeswax every so often to keep the glide smooth and the wood hydrated. They're real ebony! I wouldn't buy any other brand for my interchangeable needles.

My favorite brand.
I love these double point needles. I wish JBW could sell the straight needles so I can finish my collection. My only draw back is if these needles aren't stored correctly they are real ebony wood they will become dry. I once bought a few sets that were extremely dry and I had to let them sit with beeswax on them to get the sheen back. They were brand new. I'd recommend you keep them in a case with a ziplock bag and wet sponge to keep the humidity up. Kind of like you do with an acoustic guitar. They don't feel nice when they're dry! You can tell because they go ashen.

It's pretty cool
I like this better than the traditional knitting needle gauges. It's small and fits in anything without me having to worry if I will bend it or break it. It stays neatly together with little magnets. Kinda pricey but worth it.

I really like it
This yarn is incredibly soft, and feels nice to work with. My only gripe is the color selection. I would buy this yarn almost exclusively if there was a bigger pallet of colors to choose from. I would like to see this yarn as a sock weight and worsted weight as well. It really is good, and it deserves a chance to really thrive with different weights, twists, and color selections. I'd also like to see it include 10 yards more in the hank.
