Patented U.S. Patent Office D885,745. Exclusive to Jimmy's! Jimmy's Smart Cords combine a knitting needle and tape measure in one, which is incredibly smart! Color-coded by cord length and marked at 1-inch intervals, they let you measure your knitting projects on the fly. These extra cables for Jimmy's SmartStix needles are resilient and flexible, lying flat without kinking or twisting. The smooth join allows stitches to slide easily around the needles, and the long threaded screw-in join keeps the cords and needles firmly connected. There's a tightening hole in the metal join for extra security, and a specially designed key for easy tightening. The end caps fit snugly on the cord to protect your knitting. Plus, they're compatible with most Knitter's Pride needle tips. View all of Jimmy's SmartStix here!

Using Jimmy's Smart Cords is a breeze. First, connect the cords to your Jimmy's SmartStix needles or compatible Knitter's Pride needle tips using the long threaded screw - in join. You can use the tightening key to secure the connection through the tightening hole in the metal join for extra safety. When knitting, you can easily measure your work as the cords are marked at 1 - inch intervals and color - coded by length. After you're done knitting, simply put the end caps on the cords to keep your knitting safe. As for maintenance, keep the cords clean and dry. Avoid bending them too sharply to prevent kinking. If they get dirty, you can gently wipe them with a soft, dry cloth.
