It doesn't last as long as it should. My first baby blanket was halfway done when the wire at the end of the needle snapped off.
The answer to this question depends on your yarn, if it's a big yarn, I think it will be easy to finish it in 6 inches
There is a treasure to be found if you search.
There is a metal needle portion that is 5 inches long. In this case, 60" refers to the distance between needle tip and needle tip, not just cable length. This might be of use to you.

They must have done a lot to those needles, since I don't know what those people were doing to them! This is a massive, heavy, slightly bulky knitting project that I turned out ok I knit a larger than queen sized blanket with super bulky yarn and these lasted me the entire time. The second picture shows the way I carried the blanket around while I did it to stop the needles from snapping, but that was all I did to help prevent them from snapping. This is the needle you need!.
They're perfect for big projects such as triangular shawls of all sizes, circular shawls, large blankets, and baby blankets, and they're long enough that you can do large things such as sweater sleeves using the "Magic Loop" technique. It is possible to manually connect and disconnect circular needles with the connector cable for ChiaoGoo. As a result, the coiled up wire does not "remember" and straightens out flat and smooth- The feature of these needles making them superior in itself makes them As well as being very pliable, the cable is also very durable. needles are made of stainless steel, and I appreciate the long taper of the point. My project required me to use a size of needle I didn't have in the Boye set, so I had to use a needle-size from the ChiaoGoo set. The difference in the points was immediately apparent to me. I nearly went crazy with the Boye needles due to its shorter taper and larger points. The smooth long taper and finer point on the ChiaoGoo needles allow you to knit three, four, in fact five stitches at once, or do sssks. Cables are attached to points so that the needle has a smooth tapering flange that slips the yarn smoothly from cable to needle as it is inserted into the cable. There are a number of what I call "unusual" It is the most "snaggy" needle I have ever encountered. In the process of replacing all my circular knitting needles with ChiaoGoos, I purchased dozens of them.
I tried this brand for the first time, and I was completely satisfied with the needles. I will toss the rest of the needles in the Their smoothness is much better and there is neither kink nor memory to the cable, so I don't have to worry about tangles. length is what led me to buy the stools since I was working on a king size blanket and my wrist was This is a great product and I have ordered another size after ordering the first one. I will continue to buy this brand and use it.
My search for something like this ended here. was knitting a blanket and was having trouble with smaller needles causing pain in my hands, it was taking forever, and I couldn't find long enough cords on any needles to make it so I didn't have to constantly pick it up when I put it down. Having unraveled my blanket three times in anger before ordering these, I finally accepted the offer from Lauren. It is so much better than my old needles on every single level. I like the fact the cord doesn't kink up and lays flat, the needles have a nice long point making it easier to stitch, and the aluminum is polished nicely so it slides easily. There is one thing I wish were different about needle parts, and that is that I would prefer a 1-inch portion. The length of the mattress has been extended by 2 inches. I would recommend it 100%.
My long shawl that I was making for a Christmas present turned out great after I purchased these yarns. In my ignorance, I failed to realize how non-empathetic people can be Since I got these needles, I haven't been able to use my other needles. you boil the plastic cable part of other circular needles, you will still find that your yarn keeps shifting in one direction or another, which is what your needle grip is meant to accommodate. needles on these needles do not have a memory, so I can hold them properly and I do not have to hold them By doing this, I was able to knit longer before my wrists/hands were sore from repeated use. I shifted the knitting from WS to RS using the cable because the yarn stayed in place when I shifted it. Then I can use these again! I would like to make another shawl just so I could use these again.
These needles worked perfectly for me while I was knitting a blanket for my mom. As the cable was long enough to hold the entire length of the blanket, I was able to knit it all together in one go. key attribute to the success of the project. The needle gauge was also large enough to be able to knit freely even though the stitch had to be Because of this, the blanket becomes lighter and more breathable. Despite being a good strength, the cable was not so rigid that it made working with it difficult. This is a needle I would recommend.
I have been hesitant to purchase accessories due to my inexperience with knitting. As a first attempt, I made a bamboo round with clear acrylic joints- I hate it. There is no. My knit projects became extremely frustrating because of all the kinking, and despite the helpful tips I tried to straighten it out, it would go right back to twisting on itself. A price that seemed reasonable for this item caught my eye as I browsed. I am amazed. I could not have been happier with how this turned out. I have ordered more in different sizes and lengths, so I can stretch it out before using it again. It will take some time to unwind and stretch when opened, but when I saw the improvement, I wanted more. I also like how sturdy it is! I have been using these to make a basic sofa throw and it is beginning to have its own weight. Even so, it seems to be holding up pretty well. I have been knitting since I was about seven years old and these needles are truly the best I have used. Because the tips are metal, I haven't had any problems or annoyances with the yarn sliding on them. I highly recommend this book!.
I'm just doing basic knitting one side purling the other. I'm not sure how to do this at all. I love these needles because they are so easy A few days ago I bought an inexpensive circular needle at a local store. It was on clearance, and I liked it at first however, the plastic cable ended up tying me up. As a result of research, I landed on this brand. I have no cable problems, and the stitches stay on pretty well This brand is a great seller as well. I can't find anything that is bad about this brand. I was able to ship my order quickly and easily.
