SALE - To celebrate my launch, the smallest size is less than $1!

HOW TO USE
Slide the tip of your knitting needle into the hollow opening in the cord, and then slide your stitches onto the cord from the needle. Tie the ends of the cord off to keep the live stitches from falling off. Live video support is included with purchase if you are confused, just message me!

Recommended length for sweaters: 60” or greater
Sleeves: 30” or greater

The “Standard sweater” length will give you two 30” cords and one 60” cord in 3 individual bags.

Most sellers only have very thin cords: 2mm. I’m introducing: 3mm for larger projects!

Do you knit with US 5 and up needles? Then these cables are great for you to slide further onto your needles! You'll never have to worry about them falling off accidentally any longer. Also, choose your length so you'll never have a cable that is too short for you! Great for those of us who don't want to have super-pointy needles all the time and need a thicker end for our blunt needles.

For your super bulky yarn and needles, see my other listing for 4mm thickness cords!

Why is there a 15 feet option? For blocking those giant shawls! Never fret, you now can have a perfect circle for blocking your ring shawl.

Want a custom size? Choose the total amount you need and add the individual sizes you'd like in the customization section!

More colors and sizes are coming soon. (the purple one is just an example, we don’t have purple right now)

Inspired by the knitting barber try on cords and stitch holders. Comes in a resealable bag.
