ChiaoGoo Needles

The RED line of surgical-grade, stainless steel circulars have a smooth, satin-sheen finish and memory-free, multi-strand, steel cable coated with red nylon allowing yarn to slide right over. The needle size is permanently laser imprinted on each circular and the precisely machined tips and joins are just spectacular!

RED Lace Circular Needles are made from high quality stainless steel and feature a flexible, memory-free, nylon-coated steel cable with superior joins. Yarn easily glides from end to end with no snagging! The tips are pointier than the standard RED circulars, and there is no bend in the needle. Each size is conveniently laser imprinted on the needle in both the US and metric size.

Please note: ChiaoGoo US 17(12.75mm) needles do not follow standard US sizing. They are truly 12.75mm rather than the standard 12.00mm for a US size 17.

SPIN cables allow your tips to swivel freely! They are made of a pliable, clear nylon, and lifeline holes can be found at each end of these cables. Insert the T-shaped tightening key into the lifeline hole to assist with securing your tip/cable connection. TWIST tips will work with SPIN cables, making these a good alternative to the Red lace cables!

**Please note:
Tips ranging from US size 2-8/metric 2.75mm-5.0mm require the small [S] cables.
Tips ranging from US size 9-15/metric 5.5mm-10.0mm require the large [L] cables.

These cord keys can be used on both Twist and Spin (Bamboo) Interchangeable Needles from ChiaoGoo. Use them to tighten the connection between the needle tip and cable.

TWIST Lace circular needle tips are made from high quality stainless steel. Each size is conveniently laser imprinted on the needle in both the US and metric size. Choose between 4" and 5" long tips.
