Love the effect and speed of working with chunky yarn, and want to add cables to your creations? This two-pack of jumbo j-shaped cable needles, also called cable stitch holders, is the tool you need. There are two stitch holders, made from plastic. The smaller works alongside needles sized from 8mm to 10 mm, and the larger works alongside needles from 10 mm to 15 mm. Why We Love Clover Jumbo Cable Needles (Cable Stitch Holders) Cable needles make it much easier to knit cables, because they keep the stitches stable as you move them. These cable stitch holders are perfect for chunky yarns. The J shaped design (or U shaped, depending on who you talk to — we like J for Jumbo) ensures you won’t drop your stitches. Just pick up the stitches with the short end and drop them in the crook of the J. You can then just drop it to whatever side is the most convenient and leave them there until you need them. Then you can work the cables off the cable stitch holder using the long end as one of your needles. Patterns For Clover Jumbo Cable Needles This tool will come in very handy if you are making the Wool and the Gang Cable Bomber Knitting Kit or the free Zealana Chunky Cabled Hat pattern. About Clover Toshio Okada established a company offering wholesale of needles and handicraft accessories in 1925, and in 1948 rechristened the company Clover. Eventually, Clover began manufacturing its own high-quality tools. They are committed to making a difference in the toos that customers use.
