ChiaoGoo's RED Lace Circular Needles are a crafter's dream! Crafted from high - quality stainless steel, these needles are not only strong and durable but also incredibly smooth. The steel cable is wrapped in red nylon, ensuring that your yarn glides effortlessly across the needles and cords. Available in a wide array of lengths from 16 to 60 inches and sizes ranging from US 000 to US 19, the RED Lace needles are perfect for any knitting project. Compared to the ChiaoGoo Knit RED Circular Needles, they have pointier tips, yet still offer the same soft and smooth finish. Note: ChiaoGoo US 17 (12.75mm) needles deviate from standard US sizing; they're truly 12.75mm instead of the typical 12.00mm for a US 17.

Using your ChiaoGoo RED Lace Circular Needles is a breeze. Just start by casting on your yarn onto the needles as you normally would. The smooth surface helps the yarn move easily, making the knitting process quicker. When working on your project, the different lengths allow you to choose what's most comfortable for you. For small, detailed projects, a shorter length might be better, while larger projects benefit from longer needles. As for maintenance, keep them clean by wiping them gently with a soft cloth after each use. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they can damage the red nylon coating. Also, store them in a dry place to prevent rusting. Remember, the US 17 needles have a non - standard size, so double - check your pattern requirements before using them.
