Using these KnitPro Mindful Collection circular needles is easy. Start by choosing your yarn and casting on stitches as you normally would. The stainless - steel lace tips help you work with precision, especially for lace patterns. When knitting, enjoy the smooth movement of the cable, which won't kink or twist. You can use the inch markings on the cable to measure your work as you go. After use, simply remove the yarn and store the needles in a dry place. Avoid bending the cables too much to keep them in good condition. And remember, these needles are now part of the KnitPro family, so you're getting the same great quality in a new package.
