ChiaoGoo TWIST Large Shorties set 8cm 5.50-8.00mm

The ChiaoGoo TWIST Shorties Large set is an excellent choice for knitting projects with smaller diameters, such as sleeves and other detailed patterns. These interchangeable circular knitting needles are ideal for knitting lace patterns, bobbles, puffs, and cables, thanks to their sharp points and flexible cables.

Features of the Set:

• Needle points: The set contains 4 pairs of TWIST Shorties needle points of 8 cm long, made of stainless steel. The needle sizes are 5.50, 6.00, 6.50, and 8.00 mm. The needle tips are labeled and stored in a storage case with numbered pockets for organized access.
• Cables: The set comes with 3 cables with SWIV360 system and thread size L. These cables have lengths of 30 cm (2 pieces) and 36 cm (1 piece), including needle points. The cables are extremely flexible and prevent kinks and deformations during knitting.
• Accessories: The set contains 2 end stops, 2 T-wrenches, 2 connectors (for combining short cables into longer lengths), 6 stitch markers, and a red rubber heart for extra grip when tightening the needle points.
• Storage space: The set comes in a yellow case with lockable zipper compartments. The case has a special compartment for knitting needles and cables, and smaller compartments for accessories such as connectors, end stops, T-keys and stitch markers. A ring makes it possible to attach the case to a bag or other storage solutions.

Compatibility and Additional Information:

• MINI: For needle sizes 1.50-2.50 mm (10 and 13 cm) and 1.50-3.25 mm (8 cm). MINIparts are not compatible with the S and L thread sizes and require MINI-cables. MINI-needle points of 10 and 13 cm are too long for this MINI-cables of 5, 13, or 15 cm, but can be extended by one MINI-cable connector.
