Using these KnitPro Mindful Double Point Needles is easy. Start by choosing the yarn you want to use for your sock, hat, or sleeve project. Cast on your stitches onto the needles. As you knit, enjoy the inspiring words on the needles. When you're done with your project, carefully remove the stitches. To keep your needles in good shape, avoid dropping them on hard surfaces as this could damage the stainless steel lace tips. After use, store them in a dry place to prevent rusting. And don't forget, even though the packaging might be new, these are the same great - quality needles you're used to.
