Addi Lace Click Interchangeable Needle Set
Have all the needles you’ll ever need in one convenient carrying case! The addi Lace Click system provides 8 different sizes of addi Lace tips, five different lengths of our new, extremely pliable blue cord, and one connector piece which helps to either store stitches or combine your cords. The Click tips require no tools to change; simply insert the cord deep into the tip, twist and release. The tips will remain secure until you change them, thanks to the Click's revolutionary locking mechanism. The addi Click tips are nickel plated. Our nickel plating process is electro-static, which produces a smooth, rounded edge, where the tip and the cord "click" together.

[…] How to Stitch the Chain of Hearts Stitch […]
Hi everyone,
I am presently on a project to knit hats/beanies for cancer patients. The stitches that are sent to us are ideal for knitting beanies/hats quickly. I am using a basic plain pattern and adapting this according to the number of stitches from the pattern. Any advice from ‘seasoned knitters’?
Thanks
Brenda
Just make sure you adapt the patterns for knitting in the round.
