Designed after the well - loved addi Turbo Lace, addi Rockets knitting needles have extra - pointy tips with the same excellent nickel - plating. This plating gives them the same smooth glide as the classic addi Turbo, making your knitting faster and more efficient. The seamless connection between the needle and cord allows your yarn to slide smoothly, making the whole knitting process a breeze! When addi Rockets were first introduced, they were only available in smaller sizes and known as Sock Rockets. Now, we offer a wider range of sizes, simply called Rockets. Some old packaging may still say Sock Rocket, but they're the same high - quality 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 US 2 (2.75mm).

Using addi Rockets needles is straightforward. Start by choosing the right size needle for your project. Slide your yarn onto the needle through the smooth connection between the needle and cord. The extra - pointy tips make it easy to pick up stitches. As you knit, enjoy the smooth glide of the yarn, which speeds up the process. When it comes to maintenance, keep the needles clean and dry. Avoid exposing them to harsh chemicals that could damage the nickel - plating. Store them in a safe place, away from sharp objects that might scratch the needles. Remember, the size labels on these needles might be different from what you're used to, so double - check the actual sizes as mentioned in the product description before starting your project.
