Circular needles allow you to knit 'tube' projects in the round such as socks, cowls, hats - anything you fancy really! The best part is they can be used for flat knitting too - at the end of each row, just switch the needles around as you would with normal single-pointeds, meaning your project sits in your lap as you work, instead of weighing down your poor arms! Interchangeable needles give you even more flexibility - just screw the cable into the needle tip and tighten with the key provided. The folk at KnitPro are so clever they've even thought to provide cable 'caps' as well, to hold your stitches on the cord when you want to use the needle tips for another project. KnitPro's beautiful cubic rosewood, laminated wooden needles are adored by knitters the world over for their ease of use, comfort - and their stunning looks of course! The gorgeous wood surface is perfect for 'slippy' yarns; and the cubic shaping gives them great grip and a flawless feel.
