ChiaoGoo Interchangeable Tips and Cords
ChiaoGoo Tips and cords for their interchangeable circular knitting needle sets.
ChiaoGoo is a popular brand among knitters, known for its high-quality knitting needles and accessories. Their interchangeable circular knitting needle sets are particularly well-regarded.
- Precision Engineering: These needles are made from surgical-grade stainless steel, offering durability and a smooth, satin finish that minimizes reflections.
- Sharp Tips:The needles have some of the sharpest tips available, perfect for intricate lace and sock knitting.
- Memory-Free Cables: The iconic red cables are nylon-coated, multi-strand steel, ensuring they remain flexible and kink-free, even after extended storage.
- Smooth Joins: The joins between the needle and cord are super smooth, preventing any snagging of your yarn.
- Lifeline Holes: Each cable has lifeline holes near the ends, making it easy to thread yarn through live stitches and save your work periodically.
- Additional: Fully stocked additional tips, cords, connectors and adapters.
- Connectors connect two cords of the same size (mini, small or large).
- The Adapters will allow the joining of 2 different size cables. Adapters available will join small tips to mini cables, or large tips to small cables. There is no adapter (at the time of this writing) to join mini to large.
- If you need more cords, we stock them! (be sure to order the correct cord to fit your tip).
- and of course, we stock tips! Available in 4" and 5" tips in the Red Lace Line.
TWIST cables are memory-free! They consist of a multi-strand, steel cable coated with red nylon. 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.
Chiao Goo also offers cables that come in three sizes. Each size fits a range of tips. Unique to Chiao Goo, these different sizes allow the join to be mini, small or large as is required to make the yarn slip smoothly over the join.
- Minis: US 000 - 1.5 (1.5mm - 2.5mm> Order Cables marked as "mini" for these tip sizes.
- Small: US 2 - 8 (2.75mm - 5mm> Order Cables marked as "small" for these tip sizes.
- Large: US 9 - 15 (5.5mm - 10mm> Order Cables marked as 'large" for these tip sizes.
