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.

I love this stitch, will try it soon !
Thank you very much for the instructions.
When you say cast on multiples of 6 + 1 do you mean 7 stitches
Hi Fiona! You will cast on in multiples of 6 (12, 18, 24, 30, etc) and then add one to the end.
