he world’s shortest interchangeable needle sets - perfect for short circulars and magic loop
ChiaoGoo TWIST Shortie Sets feature 2" and 3" interchangeable tips, allowing you to create circulars from just 9" (23cm) up to 14" (36cm) — including differential lengths by combining a 2" and 3" tip on the same cable. Ideal for magic loop knitters, sock knitters, and anyone who prefers a shorter, more compact needle.
Available in three sets — Mini, Small, and Large — each comes in a beautiful pocket-sized fabric pouch with cables, connectors, end stops, and stitch markers. See the full contents of each set in the table below.
Also available are Combo Packs, which contain one 2" and one 3" set of the same diameter tip, plus two Red TWIST Mini Cables — making circulars from 9" (23cm) to 12" (30cm), including differentials.
