    Like these needles so far for sweater sleeves and hats. Find them more comfortable than fixed needles, especially since you can use one of each length tip of the same size.

    I just love the size. I knit stranded hats and I dont have to cast onto double points to change sizes of needles. Just push the stitches down. Just unscrew the tips and put on the new size and away I go. I have half of my Christmas gifts made in one month.

    Love these so much I am getting the yellow set (larger needles). I use DPNs pretty well but find them to be too long for small projects. I like these small circulars so much better. I have had to use DPNs with them to close up a hat or socks, but the knitting is much less fiddly than with the DPNs and goes faster. I have had to tighten them while knitting but its not a big deal, I just keep an eye on them. The tightening keys really help to reduce the need to do this. I think it depends on how much pressure I am putting on the needles with my stitch patterns.

    Work great for knitting sleeves in the round rather than using double points or magic loop. They’re so small that I can fit them in the case with my larger interchangeable needles.

    These are pretty amazing. These are super short interchangeable knitting needles and cables for knitting socks and sleeves in the round. They’re very expensive for a very specific job, so I’d only recommend them for a serious knitter with a long-term hobby. These aren’t really for beginners as they hold a little weird and are only for specific kinds of knitting. ChiaGoo quality has always impressed me, and this kit did as well with its large array of notions included with the needles, cables, and case. Love them so far and have used them to zip through sleeves much faster than by using magic loop!

    I had no idea that these existed! I really hate using double pointed needles so finding this really small set was really awesome! This is the larger set that goes up to 5 mm but there’s four needles one longer and one shorter. They’re great for socks sleeves, gloves, and anything with a small circumference!

The 2-inch (5cm) blue TWIST Shorties tips are made of solid surgical stainless steel and have a tightening hole allowing the use of two tightening keys for a secure connection. The 3-inch (5cm) tips are hollow with no tightening hole. Use one 2-inch tip and one 3-inch tip to make a differential circular. Included with the set are 10 pair of tips, 3 X-Flex [S] cables, 2 cable connectors, 2 end stoppers, 6 stitch markers, 4 tightening keys, a needle gauge, a tip sleeve with labeled pockets and snap enclosure and, a compact, blue nylon pouch that holds everything. This set allows you to make 9-inch (23cm) and longer circulars. Caution: TWIST cables are made of a multi-strand steel cable with nylon coating. They WILL kink when compromised. Use carefully and store in a safe place when not in use. It is not recommended to use the 5-inch (13cm) cable with two 3-inch (8cm) tips.
