ChiaoGoo RED interchangeable needles are the ultimate metal needle sets! The Shorties sets are designed for small diameter projects like socks, hats, and sleeves. Precision made with a super smooth satin-sheen finish from surgical grade stainless steel (completely nickel free and hypo-allergenic), your yarn glides freely allowing for super speedy knitting! They're laser-etched with the sizes so you'll never have to search for a needle gauge again.

The cables are made from memory-free braided stainless steel coated in translucent red nylon, and they're gauged to match the different needle sizes, ensuring a smooth join and easy transition back onto the needle. If you enjoy knitting with metal needles you're sure to love this incredible variety.

If you are looking for additional pieces for these sets, you can find the tips here and the cords here. We carry all the pieces to every set we carry so you can add and replace parts to make the sets work for you.

We also carry ChiaoGoo's fixed circular needles and interchangeable sets with 4" and 5" tips so be sure to check them out too!
