Martha Stewart and Bamboo Needles

It could be me and cheap bamboo circulars but Martha's yarn didn't agree. So I had to upsize a needle and switch to metal circulars.  Eghad!  The blend of Martha's yarn and the bamboo/plastic part of the circular just made the damn yarn stick to it.  Oy vey!  Bamboo things are fine but it just seemed like it wasn't going to work. 

I forgot to mention that two out of the three skeins I am using for this cowl have some sort of knot either at the beginning (outside) end or the interior end.  So I am not sure if its just the ones I grabbed or its the whole lot.  Why is it that Martha Stewart hates knitting but has a yarn line?  In ready the fine print on the label, I wish that it was made in the US instead of China but its still soft squishy yarn all the same.
