These bamboo cable needles are great for both cabling, and picking up stitches. The bamboo is 'stickier' than metal so the needle doesn't slip out of your stitches as easily The metal band around the centre of these cable needles is slightly raised to help keep the needle from slipping out of your stitches while cabling or picking up stitches, and will also stick to magnetic products like the Cocoknits Makers Keep, preventing them from getting lost. The points are purposely blunt so that you can use a nail file or pencil sharpener to customize your preferred sharpness on the tips. We've included 5 needles from 2.75mm through 6.5mm to give you a full range of sizes.
