The coolest little knitting product has just landed in my lap. SPIN Bamboo tips and cables from ChiaoGoo is what every knitter should have in their knitting stash. You're going to want to get one of these!
The interchangeable cables are the same swiveling nylon cables from ChiaoGoo's fixed bamboo line. Each cable comes with a cable key to make sure it's tight enough. The measurements without the tips are 8 inches, 14 inches, 22 inches, 30 inches, 37 inches and 50 inches. The "S" cables are only compatible with other "S" products, so that's something to keep in mind. The "S" stands for small join size and will work with needles 2-8 in US sizes. The "L" cable stands for large join and will work with needles 9-15. Each of the bamboo tips is hand-crafted and made of Moso bamboo. The copper, nickel-plated join is crimped and glued for a secure connection. What you'll like about the tips is the size is laser imprinted so you can easily find the one you need.
SPIN nylon cables allow the tips to swivel freely. Everything in the Bamboo Interchangeables set from coded cable connectors, end stoppers, T-shaped tightening keys, stitch markers, a needle gauge and compact, is what every knitter needs with the tips and cables. This makes a fabulous gift to give to a knitter friend or something to keep for yourself. If you haven't had a chance to try this out now is the time to get motivated!
