Using these KnitPro Mindful Double Point Needles is easy. Start by choosing the right yarn for your project, like socks, hats, or sleeves. Thread the yarn onto the needle and begin knitting following your pattern. As you work, take a moment to read the inspiring words on the needles and stay in a mindful state. When you're done knitting, carefully remove your work from the needles. To keep your needles in good shape, store them in a dry place. Avoid bending or dropping them, as this could damage the stainless - steel lace tips. If they get dirty, you can gently wipe them with a clean, dry cloth.
