    A useful length

    I haven't tried this with standard-length tips yet, only with short, but I've found it a handy size. I've been using it for knitting in the round with the two-circulars method; it's long enough, produces a useable angle between the needle tips, and it doesn't seem to get its own ideas about curving the way the 24" ones do. The ferrule being gold-tone instead of silver doesn't exactly add much to the experience, but if I'm careful about what I buy in this colour combo then the contrast should help me work out more quickly whether I've grabbed the correct length of cable for a project.

Description

See here for important information about interchangeable cables lengths

These cables are compatible with all KnitPro interchangeable items.

Flexible, thin cables that are best in their category with almost no memory
    Compatible with all KnitPro Interchangeable needle tips including wood, metal and acrylic
    Smooth cable joins enables stitches to slide around needles effortlessly

Circular Needle Length Required
(as selected above)
Approx Actual Cable Length
(makes circular needle length when tips added)
40cm** 20cm**
60cm 35cm
80cm 56cm
100cm 76cm
120cm 94cm
150cm 126cm
200cm 176cm



** If using the 40cm cable it is recommended to use the short KnitPro needle tips. Using standard length tips will make the length from tip-to-tip approximately 46cm, but will also limit the angle you can get between the tips and may make knitting very awkward.
