Inspired by the well - loved addi Turbo Lace, addi Rockets needles have extra - pointy tips with the same amazing nickel - plating that gives the classic addi Turbo its unmatched smoothness. The seamless connection between the needle and cord allows your yarn to glide effortlessly, making knitting faster and easier! When addi Rockets first hit the market, they were only available in smaller sizes and were named Sock Rockets. Now, they come in a wider range of sizes and are simply called Rockets. Some old packaging still says Sock Rocket, but they're the same great product. Note: In this line, needles usually labeled US 1 (2.25mm) are actually US 1 (2.5mm), US 2 (2.75mm) are actually US 2 (3.0mm), and US 2.75mm are truly US 2 (2.75mm).

Using these addi Rockets needles is a breeze. Just thread your yarn through the cord and start knitting as you normally would. The extra - pointy tips and smooth glide make it easy to work with different types of yarn. When you're done, store the needles in a dry place to prevent rusting of the nickel - plating. Be careful when handling them as the tips are very sharp. Also, keep in mind the actual sizes of the needles in this line as mentioned in the product description. If you notice any damage to the needles or the cord, it's best to replace them to ensure a good knitting experience.
