Inspired by the well - loved addi Turbo Lace, addi Rockets needles come with extra - pointy tips. They're nickel - plated, just like the classic addi Turbo, giving your knitting that unmatched speed. The seamless connection between the needle and cord allows your yarn to glide smoothly, making knitting a breeze and significantly faster! When addi Rockets first launched, they were only available in smaller sizes and known as Sock Rockets. Now, there's a broader range of sizes, and they're simply called Rockets. Some older packages still say Sock Rocket, but it's the same excellent product. Note: In this line, needles usually labeled US 1 (2.25mm) are actually US 1 (2.5mm), those labeled US 2 (2.75mm) are actually US 2 (3.0mm), and those labeled US 2.75mm are truly US 2 (2.75mm).

Using these addi Rockets needles is easy. Just thread your yarn through the smooth - joined needle and cord, and start knitting as you normally would. The extra - pointy tips help you pick up stitches quickly. For best results, keep your hands clean to avoid getting dirt on the nickel - plated surface. If the needles get dirty, you can gently wipe them with a soft, dry cloth. When not in use, store them in a safe place to prevent bending or damage. Also, remember the size differences in this line as mentioned in the product description to ensure you're using the right size for your project.
