Cable (Tightening) Keys

One can never have enough cable tightening keys in our opinion. Much like stitch markers, these handy keys by ChiaoGoo are a necessity for any knitter who favours interchangeable needles for knitting in the round.
£1.80

There’s nothing worse than your interchangeable needle coming loose and snagging your yarn, or worse still, detaching and losing all your stitches completely! Use these tightening keys every time you connect your ChiaoGoo needle tips, connectors or stoppers to your cables for a super tight connection that won’t come loose.

Simply insert the key into the lifeline hole found on the metal joins at the ends of your TWIST cables, connectors or stoppers and use as a handle to help you grasp and tighten the screw connection. Repeat the process to loosen the connection and remove your tips from the cable, 

The cable tightening keys are available in two different sizes:

  • Small/Large: just the right size for the Small and Large interchangeables.
  • Mini: just the right size for the Mini interchangeables.

We highly recommend pairing these with a ChiaoGoo rubber gripper wrapped around the needle tip to help you get an extra secure attachment.

For UK delivery, we use Royal Mail’s Tracked 24 and Tracked 48 services. Provided goods are in stock, every effort will be made to dispatch your order the next day during shop opening hours, 1-3 days when the shop is closed.
