Using these ChiaoGoo Knit RED Circular Needles is a breeze. First, choose the right size and length for your project. Then, start by casting on your stitches. Since the yarn slides easily on the smooth nylon - coated cable, you can work quickly and efficiently. When you're done knitting, gently remove your work from the needles. To keep your needles in great shape, avoid bending them too much as they're made of stainless steel but can still be damaged. Clean them with a soft, dry cloth regularly. Don't expose them to harsh chemicals as this might damage the red nylon coating. Store them in a dry place, away from moisture to prevent rusting. That way, you can enjoy using these needles for many knitting projects to come.
