ChiaoGoo Twist Lace Short Combo Pack 5+8cm 4.00mm - 1pc

I stumbled onto Chiaogoo about 4 years ago. I absolutely love everything about them. I was overjoyed when they came out with the Shorties. Trying to find 9” fixed circulars was nearly impossible in the sizes I wanted and needed. The shorties are awesome. I have the sizes I want. The tips are nice and pointed. The joins for cables and adapters are smooth. They are a little costly , but well worth the investment to me. In the long run I do not have multiple circular sets in different lengths everywhere.I saw review by one person telling how she likes to use a 2” needle on one end a 3” needle on the opposite end of the cable. I find myself doing the same.Chiaogoo does not currently sell the 2” needle separately, but they do sell the 3”. Right now I can only buy extra sets of needles (to make flexible double points) which leaves me with a lot of 5 and 6 inch cables. Now that they have come out with cables that swivel, I wish they could be included in the sets.

Nice to work with. Smooth. It definitely takes a little time getting used to but would definitely recommend these

These save every knitters struggle with decreasing sleeves on sweaters and also great for socks. If you are like me and hate moving to DPNs when the knitted area is reduced , stop struggling and purchase this product . Various needle sizes are available.

It took some getting used to these - my hands were cramping at first, because you need to change your grip to handle to smaller needles. But once I adjusted, things were fine. I hate double points - and these allow me to finish hats and sleeves in the round. Thinking of buying a complete set.

Expensive for a single set, but worth their price. They worked perfectly for the baby sweater sleeves I was working on. Came with a 2” and 3” length needles, a 5” and a 6” blue twist cables and 2 tightening pins. These cables are amazing since they are durable, but don’t have the curling memory like the plastic cables you usually get with interchangeable needle sets. I liked them so much I decided to order the whole set! A little awkward to get used to working with at first, as they are obviously shorter than normal needles, but definitely perfect for those small tight projects! P

I love the cables and I love the points of the needles and the smooth connections between cable and needle.

Perfect!

This order came on time with no problems.I wanted to try knitting with short needles and cables but it is just too fussy/fidgety. When you've been knitting with regular length 6" circular needles for years then move to 2"-3" needles it feels too hard to control the short needles. I didn't like it but will probably try again.
