The KnitPro Symfonie 2 Deluxe Set brings together 9 widely used needle sizes, comfortable 13cm birchwood tips and four swivel cables for projects from accessories to sweaters and blankets. It is a colourful, well-rounded interchangeable system for knitters who prefer a longer grip.
Deluxe 13cm Set 55506
This is one multi-size set, not a single pair of tips. It contains 18 individual tips arranged as 9 matching pairs, four swivel cables, cable accessories and a printed fabric storage case.
The set includes 13cm tips in 3.00, 3.50, 4.00, 4.50, 5.00, 5.50, 6.00, 7.00 and 8.00mm. Each diameter has two matching tips.
This range covers many yarn weights and projects, subject to the gauge required by your pattern.
One complete Symfonie 2 Deluxe set with normal-length tips, four swivel cables, 8 end caps, 4 keys, cable connectors and printed fabric case.
Seven-colour laminated birchwood in sizes from 3.00mm through 8.00mm.
One 60cm and one 80cm finished circular length with extra-thin flexibility.
One 80cm and one 100cm finished circular length with 360 degree swivel action.
8 end caps, 4 cable keys, 1 set of cable connectors and a printed fabric case.
Symfonie 2 retains the warm laminated birchwood feel and controlled stitch movement associated with Symfonie needles, while introducing seven joyful colours, precision laser size markings and an upgraded circular system.
Green, yellow, orange, red, pink, purple and blue layers create the distinctive rainbow pattern.
Laser markings stay visible and make it easier to return the correct pair to its case.
Layered wood offers natural warmth, light weight and smooth movement with useful yarn control.
Silver connectors create a refined transition between the wooden tips and purple swivel cables.
All four purple cables use nylon-coated stainless steel, silver connectors and 360 degree swivel action. Two use the newer Ultra Flex construction, designed to be extra thin, flexible and resistant to holding a stored coil. Two provide KnitPro's regular swivel-cable feel.
The duplicate 80cm option lets you choose between Ultra Flex and regular cable feel for one of the most useful circular lengths.
Metric diameter is the reliable size reference. Approximate US conversions are included for convenience. Choose the diameter that produces the gauge required by your pattern.

KnitPro calls its 13cm format Normal. The longer tip gives more hand room than the 10cm Special or 5cm Mini systems and works naturally with finished circular lengths of 60cm and longer.
Longer grip area for garments, shawls, blankets, flat knitting and medium to large circumferences. Includes 60cm, 80cm and 100cm finished lengths.
Shorter grip with the geometry needed to form compact 40cm and 50cm circulars. Particularly useful for hats, cowls and suitable sleeves.
A specialised extra-short format for very compact circular systems. It provides much less hand room than this 13cm set.
Use suitable lengths for bodies, yokes and panels worked flat or in the round.
Hold growing stitch counts comfortably while enjoying the controlled glide of wood.
Move the weight of wider flat projects onto the cable instead of holding it on straight needles.
Knit scarves, larger cowls and suitable hats when the project circumference matches the cable.
Use the 100cm cable for many small-circumference projects when your chosen magic-loop method and gauge suit.
Select the metric tip size and the 60cm, 80cm or 100cm finished length required by your pattern.
Thread one 13cm tip onto each silver cable connector until both connections are finger tight.
Insert the supplied key into the cable hole for leverage and firmly secure each connection.
Confirm the live stitches can travel smoothly around the assembled needle before joining in the round.
Wipe wooden tips with a soft dry cloth and avoid soaking or harsh household cleaners.
Return matching pairs to the printed case instead of leaving them loose beneath heavier tools.
Never force a threaded connection. Align it carefully, tighten with the key and stop if resistance feels uneven.
Keep the end caps, keys and cable connectors in a secure case pocket so the set remains complete.

They are made from laminated birchwood in the seven-colour Symfonie 2 chevron pattern.
It retains the warm laminated birchwood feel while introducing seven new colours, laser size markings and an upgraded swivel cable system.
You receive 60cm and 80cm Ultra Flex cables, plus 80cm and 100cm regular swivel cables.
No. Each measurement is the approximate complete tip-to-tip circular length after a pair of 13cm tips is attached.
Ultra Flex cables are designed to be thinner, more flexible and less inclined to retain a stored coil. The regular cables provide KnitPro's standard swivel-cable feel.
Yes. All four cables use 360 degree swivel action, helping reduce transferred twist as you knit.
No. The 13cm tips are too long to form a comfortable 40cm circular. Choose KnitPro's 10cm Special tips when a 40cm finished length is required.
Yes. Circular needles work very well for flat rows, and their cables can hold growing stitch counts or carry project weight away from your hands.
Yes, when the project, gauge and your preferred magic-loop technique suit that finished length.
The 100cm cable can support magic loop, but the smallest included diameter is 3.00mm. Many fine sock patterns require smaller needles, so check your pattern first.
Yes. Finger tightening alone may allow a connection to loosen. The key provides the leverage needed to secure each tip properly.
They fit onto a cable after the tips are removed, helping keep live stitches safely on the cable while the tips are used elsewhere.
The included connector set joins compatible KnitPro cables when extra cable capacity is useful. Tighten each threaded join securely with a key.
Start with the metric size specified by your pattern, make a useful swatch and adjust the diameter if needed to achieve the required gauge.
Keep the wooden tips clean and dry, protect the points in the case, start threaded joins straight and store the cables without sharp folds or heavy pressure.
Choose the metric size your pattern requires, fit the cable length that suits the project and enjoy the warm control of polished rainbow birchwood.
