Overview
ChiaoGoo makes this stainless steel circular needle with a red cable for small-circumference knitting. The metal tips glide stitches along the cable, and the short length suits socks, hats and cuffs.
A short, light circular needle is convenient for projects with few stitches, and the stainless steel is smooth. The size is written as two numbers and no point shape, cable material or tip length is described.
Who it's for
Sock and accessory knitters who dislike double pointed needles get a smooth, quick option. Anyone knitting wide pieces needs a longer cable.
Pros and cons
- Short length for small circumference
- Smooth stainless steel
- Light at a few grams
- Size notation is unclear
- Point shape not listed
- Cable material not listed
Performance notes
Short metal tips let stitches slide with little drag, which speeds small-round knitting. A short cable limits the circumference, so the project must fit around the loop.
