Inspired by the well - loved addi Turbo Lace, addi Rockets needles come with extra - pointy tips. These tips are nickel - plated, just like the classic addi Turbo, offering an amazing glide. The seamless connection between the needle and cord allows your yarn to slide smoothly, making knitting both easier and faster! When first introduced, addi Rockets were only available in smaller sizes and were known as Sock Rockets. Now, they come in a wider range of sizes and are simply called Rockets. Some older packaging may still say Sock Rocket, but it's 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 those labeled US 2.75mm are actually 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 smooth glide of the yarn over the nickel - plated tips and the seamless needle - cord join will make your knitting process much quicker. As for care, you can gently wipe the needles with a soft cloth after use to keep them clean. Store them in a dry place to prevent rusting. Also, remember the size differences in this line as mentioned - don't be confused by the typical size labels. Enjoy knitting with these great needles!
