Knit Pro Symfonie Wood Deluxe needle set includes eight pairs of interchangeable needle tips and 4 black Swivel 360° nylon coated stainless steel cables (with end stoppers and cable keys) for the tips. The needle sizes are 3.50, 4, 4.50, 5, 5.50, 6, 7 and 8mm, and cable lenghts (when attached to the 13cm tips) are 60cm, 2 x 80cm and 100cm. The needles and cables are packaged in a beautiful new rich purple fabric scalloped edge case, with zipper closure. Interchangeable needle tip length 13cm (5").
When tips are attached to the cables, you get a circular needle. The tips can be screwed by hand to the cable. The cable key that comes with the cables is used to slip through the tiny hole on the cable end and used as leverage to tighten the cable. Without carefully tightening the tip to the cable, the twist may loosen a bit.
The knitting needles and crochet hooks are made of light and durable birch plywood and they are dyed multi-colored in layers. The surface has been ground to a very smooth finish. As a material, birch is warm to touch, gentle in hands and works well with every type of yarn.
