Hands down favorites among our staff and customers. These precisely-machined, lace tips are made of surgical stainless steel. The size is laser engraved on the barrel of each tip. TWIST™ tips can be used with TWIST™ and SPIN™ cables. We recommend using the heart gripper and T-pin to tighten the tips to the cables before using. These are interchangeables you cannot live without. They will quickly become your go-to needles to the exclusion of all others (ask us how we know!).
One additional thing we really like about ChiaoGoo is that they are headquartered a few miles south of us and we pick up our orders right at their offices. They have been in business just about as long as Heritage and it has been fun to watch them grow into the best needle company in the world. A great company to work with, they stand by their product and have supported our shop and charity events for years. No matter how you look at it, ChiaoGoo is a leader that gives back to the knitting (and crochet) community.
