Update: Interchangeable Sock Needle Set

In my last post, I recently bought Chiaogoo's new interchangeable sock needle set and I wanted to give y'all an update about it:

While I haven't used it for an actual pair of socks (yet), it's been a life saver as my sock lifeline.  The cables and the needles seem much thinner than any of my fixed circular needles.  For instance, the interchangeable US 0 needles seem significantly thinner than my fixed Chiaogoo's US 0; almost as if it's nearly a size smaller.  Now, this isn't a bad thing; actually, I love my new needle set - a lot! :)  Since it seems smaller and thinner, it's actually easier to use and maneuver/manipulate the needles and cable.  Here's a picture of what it looks like as a lifeline:

This particular set of needles seems to be one of the best buys I've gotten so far! :)
