Patina bamboo tips
The bamboo surface offers more grip than polished metal, useful when you prefer a steadier feel with slippery yarn.

Where an 80cm circular works well
Use this length for suitable garment sections, cowls, shawls and wider pieces knitted flat. For knitting in the round, the work needs to sit comfortably around the needle; a small hat or sleeve may need a shorter circular or another technique.
80cm / 32 inches is the complete tip-to-tip length, including both bamboo tips and the fixed cable. It is not the length of the cable alone.

Care for your bamboo needles
Store the needle loosely coiled, protect the points and avoid sharply folding the cable or placing heavy items on the tips. Wipe with a soft dry cloth and keep away from prolonged moisture and heat. Always knit a swatch in your project yarn before committing to a size.
Questions before you choose
Is the cable included?
Yes. This is one ready-to-use fixed circular needle. Both tips are permanently attached to the cable.
Can I change the cable?
No. Choose a ChiaoGoo SPIN interchangeable set if you want removable bamboo tips and cables.
How does it differ from RED Lace?
This range has bamboo tips and a clear nylon cable. RED Lace uses stainless steel tips and a red nylon-coated steel cable. Choose the material and feel that suit your knitting.
Do I need an interchangeable connection size?
No. There are no separate MINI, Small or Large fittings to choose for this fixed circular. Select the needle diameter your pattern requires.
