A streamlined route into TWIST
Buy the range you use now. Expand only when you need to.
If most of your knitting sits between 2.75 and 5mm, the 7500-S avoids filling the case with larger 5.5–10mm tips you may rarely choose. Every included component uses ChiaoGoo’s Small [S] threaded connection.
The 13cm tip length gives a standard handhold for 60cm-and-longer circulars. ChiaoGoo’s finely tapered lace points help with decreases, cables, lace and detailed stitches across lightweight and everyday yarns.
- Surgical stainless-steel tips
- Laser-etched size markings
- Virtually memory-free cables
- Lifeline holes at cable joins

|---|---|---|---|
| 35cm / 14 inches | 60cm / 24 inches | Small [S] | Cowls, compact flat work and smaller garment sections |

No 20cm cables are included in the 5-inch set
The 20cm cable is intended for shorter 10cm tips to create an approximately 40cm circular. The 7500-S uses 13cm tips and officially includes 35, 55 and 75cm cables instead.
Everyday circular knitting from fine to medium sizes
Lace, cables + shawls
The finely tapered lace points help work decreases, yarn overs, cable crossings and stitches grouped for texture.
Range advantage: seven sizes between 2.75 and 5mm.Cardigans + jumpers
Use the included lengths for bodies, yokes, worked-flat sections and other constructions that suit 60cm or longer circulars.
Tip advantage: a standard 13cm handhold.Socks, sleeves + hats
Use the 80 or 100cm circular for Magic Loop, or compare the 4-inch Small set if a short fixed circumference is your priority.

ChiaoGoo 7500-S FAQs
Which needle sizes are included?
The seven included pairs are 2.75, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75, 4, 4.5 and 5mm. The 3mm / US 2.5 pair is available separately but is not part of the 7500-S set.
Which cables are included?
Official ChiaoGoo documentation lists one each of the 35, 55 and 75cm Small [S] TWIST red cables. With the 13cm tips, they make approximately 60, 80 and 100cm circulars.
Does the set include 20cm cables?
No. The two-20cm-cable configuration belongs to ChiaoGoo’s shorter 10cm / 4-inch set. ChiaoGoo does not recommend pairing the 20cm cable with 13cm tips.
Can the 7500-S make a 40cm / 16-inch circular?
No. Choose the 7400-S 4-inch Small set when you need a 40cm circular. The shortest combination supplied with this 5-inch set is approximately 60cm.
What does Small [S] mean?
Small identifies the threaded connection size used by all seven included tips and all three included cables. MINI [M] and Large [L] parts do not connect directly to this set without the correct purpose-made adapter.
Should I choose the Small or Complete set?
Choose 7500-S when 2.75–5mm covers most of your work. Choose the 7500-C Complete set when you also want the six Large [L] sizes from 5.5–10mm and their matching cables and accessories.
Can I use the set for Magic Loop?
Yes. The 80 and 100cm assembled circulars are suitable for Magic Loop when the chosen length works for your technique and project.
How do the lifeline holes work?
Thread waste yarn through the cable-end hole before knitting across the row so the cable carries it through the live stitches. The same hole accepts a T-key when tightening the connection.
Are TWIST and SPIN components compatible?
ChiaoGoo says TWIST and SPIN tips, cables and accessories are switchable when the join size matches. Use Small [S] components with this set.
Are the stainless-steel tips nickel-free?
ChiaoGoo describes them as surgical stainless steel and user-friendly to knitters sensitive to nickel, but does not describe them as nickel-free. Anyone with a known metal allergy should check the manufacturer’s latest guidance before purchase.
