Bamboo Cable Needle

This was purchased for a stocking stuffer - the recipient was very pleased. When I initially ordered it, it was out of stock but I was notified when it was available. The one downside was the mailing cost was VERY expensive - more than the item itself. The cable needle was very light and came in just in a little envelope. I couldn't imagine why the cost was so high, even though it was coming from Canada!

Good cable needle, doesn’t slip!

I bought the 5mm cable needle and it’s quite good! Stitches do not slip off! I kindof prefer U-shaped cable needles though, so I go between this and the Clover U-shaped needle I like. I do prefer the bamboo surface though.

I love how the yarn stays put on the wooden cable needles and that they come in 3 different sizes. And I also like that they're made in Canada!

Cables are easier!

Switched to this bent needle from the straight dp I was using. No more stitches slipping off in the middle of knitting a cable. Current project has a lot of different size cables so this came in the nick of time.
