Exclusive and original to Seeknit, these asymmetrical 23cm circular needles were developed for use with sock yarn, and are available in diameters from 2.5mm to 5mm. These circular knitting needles are incredibly lightweight, flexible, and sturdy with a smooth polished surface. Featuring a swivel cable connection, they allow you to enjoy hours of comfortable knitting without twisting or knots forming in the cord.
Asymmetric Circular Needles have a short needle and a long needle. Place the stitches on the short needle and work through with the long needle. Since the moving needle is longer it is easier to hold, making these suited for small circular projects (such as socks) and making a more smooth and comfortable knitting experience.
