Using these KnitPro Mindful Collection circular needles is easy. Just thread your yarn through the cable and start knitting. For lace work, the sharp tips will help you make precise stitches. When knitting daily items, the smooth cables ensure the yarn glides easily. Remember, these cables have no memory, so you don't need to worry about kinks. To take care of your needles, keep them in a dry place. You can gently wipe them with a soft cloth if they get dirty. When not in use, store them properly to avoid bending the tips. Although the packaging might change to the KnitPro style, the product quality stays top - notch.
