Using these KnitPro Mindful Collection circular needles is easy. First, pick your favorite yarn and start knitting as you usually would. The stainless - steel lace tips are great for getting into tight spaces when doing lace work. The cables marked every inch can help you measure your work as you go. When you're done knitting, gently remove the yarn. To keep these needles in good shape, store them in a dry place. Avoid bending the cables too much as they're designed to be kink - free, but excessive force could damage them. Also, if they get dirty, you can wipe them clean with a soft, dry cloth. Enjoy your knitting with these wonderful needles!
