The ChiaoGoo TWIST cables feature a multi-strand steel core that is coated with their signature red nylon to create the colourful cable they are famous for. The cord is flexible, smooth and memory-free free so it will always go back to its original shape and remain straight and free from kinks while you knit. The join between the needle and tips is reliably smooth so you can knit in an easy, uninterrupted rhythm.
A T-shaped tightening key is included in the pack to tightly fasten the needle tip to the cable. Simply insert the key into the tightening hole and twist to prevent your tip from coming loose while knitting – there’s nothing worse than snagging your yarn, or worse yet, losing all your stitches!
These cables are to be paired with our ChiaoGoo TWIST interchangeable tips, however, the required connector size will depend on the size of needle tips you will be pairing it with. For instance:
- Mini (M) cables are compatible with needle sizes up to 2.5mm
- Small (S) cables are compatible with needle sizes from 2.75mm – 5mm
- Large (L) cables are compatible with needle sizes 5.5mm +
Please note: the cable length listed is accurate. The final length of your circular needle is achieved once 3″, 4″ or 5″ ChiaoGoo TWIST interchangeable tips of are connected. For added grip when tightening your needle tips, try our ChiaoGoo Rubber Grippers.
