Troubleshooting
Yarn feels sticky or snagging
Ensure the needles are clean and free of any residue. Occasionally, very fine yarns can catch on the transition point between the needle body and tip; try a slightly different angle of knitting or check for any burrs on the needle tip.

While the pad-printed markings are durable, try cleaning the needle with a soft cloth. If extremely worn, use a magnifying glass to confirm the size.
Needles feel too short for a project
