An exquisite cable set in stainless steel with a 360° swivel join. Swivel cables from KnitPro are high-quality cables in a league of their own. They’re resilient, flexible, and have smooth transitions that rotate 360° for a more flexible knitting experience.
The steel cables are purple and have a nice and smooth coating. They’re also “memory-free”, meaning that they will always unfold nicely with no risk of bends and folds.
The set includes:
- 1 cable
- 2 end caps
- 1 cable key
All parts are compatible with all types of KnitPro interchangeable knitting needles/crochet hooks in any material!
Use the small cable key to ensure a tight connection between cable and needle. Insert the end of the “key” into the small hole on the screw-in "join" and work it all the way through to form a handle. Tighten the needle tip while keeping a firm grip on the “key”. You can find a video link on this page.
Use the end caps when you need to put your work on hold. The needle tips are exchanged for the stoppers to keep the work safe and secure on the cables. Simply screw the stoppers onto the cable the same way as you would the needles.
NOTE! Please note that the length of the cables includes the needles:
40 cm (15.7”): the cable is 20 cm (7.9”) long without needles
50 cm (19.7”): the cable is 28 cm (11”) long without needles
60 cm (23.6”): the cable is 35 cm (13.8”) long without needles
80 cm (31.5”): the cable is 56 cm (22”) long without needles
100 cm (39.4”): the cable is 76 cm (29.9”) long without needles

These swivel cables are an absolute lifesaver. I don’t think I will ever buy non-swivel cables now that I have these. As a beginning knitter I’ve been so frustrated with cables disconnecting in the middle of a project, and because these swivel I haven’t lost any work from cables falling off my interchangeable needles. The are very flexible and easy to use. I highly recommend these. I purchased two more sizes after I got the first one.

These are wonderful! I ordered three different lengths, and they are compatible with my Lykke brand needles. For me it's incredibly useful to have a cable that swivels because I tend to twist my needles sometimes. The cables also unwind without trying to coil up again which is a huge help with keeping things tidy. I would definitely recommend!
