I have arthritis in my hands and had given up knitting til I discovered bamboo then wooden needles. I didn’t like knitpro’s standard cables as they tended to stay curled when I had to stop knitting for a while. These are brilliant and the join is much smoother.
Poor quality, not a patch on the original range. I have had several break , one with over a 150 stitches on , not best pleased. Contacted Knit Pro, they said never had any other complaints...mmm!
See here for important information about interchangeable cables lengths
Strong and flexible, these cables are made of the finest grade material. Offered with teal coloured end caps with a floral print, they are a delight to use. The matching teal cable key is used for tightening the tips onto the cables to stop them coming undone during knitting.
Available with a fixed or swivel cord. The fixed cord is non-rotating, the swivel cord rotates to avoid twisting.
These cables are designed to be used with Mindful Interchangeable Knitting Needles, but are compatible with all KnitPro interchangeable items.
• Flexible, thin cables that are best in their category, memory free for no twisting
• Smooth cable joins enable stitches to slide around needles effortlessly
• Long threaded joins to ensure that cable and needles stay connected
• Tightening hole provided in the join for that extra tightening
• Specially designed tightening key that facilitates effortless tightening
• Cable caps that fit on to the cable joins to keep the knitting safe
The final cable length is achieved when needle tips and cable are joined together
| Circular Needle Length Required (as selected above) |
Approx Actual Cable Length (makes circular needle length when tips added) |
| 40cm** | 20cm** |
| 50cm | 28cm |
| 60cm | 35cm |
| 80cm | 56cm |
| 100cm | 76cm |
| 120cm | 94cm |
| 150cm | 126cm |
** 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.
