Work a treat !
I discovered these needles a while ago .. I like to just knit a ball of wool .. no pattern & no purpose really .. just to keep my hands busy.
But I was finding the weight of the wool when knitted up made my shoulders ache so much .. not any more with these bad boys (!!) .. there is no weight at all pulling on my neck .. yay
Also, they're not long & cumbersome like long needles & you can't drop one at a row end as I was prone to do lol
Finally, they just are .. great!! They curl up into a little ball .. the ends can be stuck into my ball of wool & I'm good to go
Whatever did I do before my "round robin" needles??

Circular Needles.
I bought these to make a large triangular scarf. Previously I've used traditional very long, straight needles and found them quite awkward to manage, especially once near the end and the weight of the knitting is making it even more difficult.
The circular needle has made such a difference! So easy to use. The wool slips easily from the cable to the needle part of the circle and the weight is on my lap, making the job so much easier and enjoyable to do.
I wish I'd bought this useful bit of kit a long time ago. Now I'm looking forward to using them every time I make a shawl or scarf.
A great discovery and at under £5, a really good buy.

Easy to use
I purchased three different size Pony needles, having realised as I Reach old age, knitting larger garments on conventional knitting needles, means my arthrickety hands soon become sore. Not any more! I would highly recommend using circular needles for every project. The Pony brand is well known and well made. The tips are smooth and the cable sturdy. The size is printed on them to help identify them if you don’t keep them in their cardboard sleeve. I am so pleased with them I am replacing all my old needles with the Pony circular ones

Does the job
For a few pounds this is fine, but now that I’ve been knitting ten or so rows with it I can see the benefit of buying a more expensive circular needle. The metal tips are very slippy when I’ve been preferring wood or plastic so far as a beginner. The cable twists and has strong memory so it can be awkward. The joins between the cable and the needle aren’t perfectly smooth so the stitches catch here all the time which interrupts your knitting to go to the end of the row and push all the stitches over the join.
I’m glad I bought it to try out circulars and I’ll complete the project on them but they’ve definitely sold me on buying a proper expensive set of interchangeables.

Any Knitting Needles
I find using Pony Knitting needles the best simply because when knitting a heavy garment all the weight falls in the middle when using circular needles and if you have a weak wrist its a big help

Super knitting needles
My first time with circular needles. Fantastic to use for baby clothes. Light weight and much easier to manage than ordinary needles as I have arthritis

This product does the job.
It was a bit tricky to use at first because it was curled up from being in the packet and that made it difficult to ensure the stitches weren't twisted; however, once I'd been using it for a while it straightened out. It is nice and smooth for the stitches to slide over, and the join from the hard ends to the curly middle bit is also completely smooth for the stitches to ride easily over.

Poor product
I bought this size 4mm circular needle for a specific project and the first time I used it, with 397 stitches on the needle, one of the ends came apart. I definitely expect a better product from Pony who I thought had always been a reliable brand. I was not pleased to have to go out and buy a replacement product from elsewhere and start all over again.
