KnitPro Dreamz Interchangeable Tips, 5"
Knitter's Pride is changing their name to KnitPro to bring North America in line with their other markets. With this update comes updated packaging! These needle tips now come in plastic-free, recyclable card packaging.
Price is for one pair of tips. Dreamz are laminated birchwood, that are colour-coded for easy size identification.
The 5" tips are often called "Normal" length as they are the shaft length most knitters are used to when working with circular knitting needles longer than 20". You will find that they feel too long if you try to use them with an 8"-to-make-finished-length-of-16" cord. Keep in mind that 5" is a general guide - most of the tips are actually 0.1-0.5" shorter than 5" depending on the needle size.
The most common question we get about KnitPro interchangeables, is if they come smaller than a 3.00mm - unfortunately they cannot, as the gauge of the interchangeable cord they use is 3.00mm, so if KnitPro made narrower tips there would be a big bulge at the spot where it meets the cord that would make knitting untenable.
