Description
ChiaoGoo Twist Short Combo sets are built for sock knitters! If you like knitting socks on short circulars, these versatile, interchangeable Short Combos are great knitting needles.
One set includes:
- a set of 2-inch / 5 cm needle tips
- a set of 3-inch / 8 cm needle tips
- a 5-inch / 13 cm cable
- a 6-inch / 15 cm cable
- two tightening keys
- tightening holes on both the needle tips and the cable sockets
With just one of these Short Combo sets, you can create a multitude of configurations:
- a 9″ / 23 cm circular needle (2″ tips + 5″ cable)
- a 10″ / 25 cm circular needle (2″ tips + 6″ cable)
- a 10″ circ with a short tip and a long tip (2″ tip + 3″ tip + 5″ cable)
- an 11″ circ with a short tip and a long tip (2″ tip + 3″ tip + 6″ cable)
- an 11″ circular needle (3″ tips + 5″ cable) (not recommended because the tips together are longer than the cable, and that can bend the joins and cause stress on the cables)
- a 12″ / 31 cm circular needle (3″ tips + 6″ cable)
The ChiaoGoo Twist Short Combo components feature Mini [M] size screws and sockets and are compatible with other Mini [M] ChiaoGoo interchangeable knitting needles, cables, and connectors.
ChiaoGoo Twist Lace Interchangeable knitting needles are made from surgical stainless steel, with sharp, precision lace tips. The red cables are multi-strand, nylon-coated, memory-free steel cables that don’t curl or kink. ChiaoGoo has the smoothest connections between components that we’ve found so far. They are a dream to knit with.
