What exactly is included in the KnitPro Cubics 13 cm (approx. 5 in) Interchangeable Circular Needle Set?

<div class="faq-answer"><p>It includes 7 pairs of 13 cm (approx. 5 in) tips in 4.00 / 4.50 / 5.00 / 5.50 / 6.00 / 7.00 / 8.00 mm and 4 Swivel 360° cables for total lengths of 60, 80, 80 and 100 cm (approx. 24, 32, 32 and 39 in) (including tips).</p><p>It also comes with 8 stoppers, 4 tightening keys and 1 set of connectors, all in a fabric case with compartments and a zipped accessory pocket.</p></div>

What does “Cubics” mean, and what changes when you knit with this set?

<div class="faq-answer"><p>“Cubics” refers to the <b>cubic/square shape</b> of the tips. The idea is that your hand has more points of contact and the grip feels more secure, without needing to hold on so tightly.</p><p>In practice, if you find it hard to keep an even tension or your hands get tired with very fine, round needles, this profile can feel more “stable”. It doesn’t change the pattern, but it can change how the needle feels to hold and push.</p></div>

Do the cables in the set twist while you knit in the round?

<div class="faq-answer"><p>The set includes <b>Swivel 360° cables</b>, meaning the join can rotate: when you turn your work, the cable follows more naturally and tends to build up less twist than a non-swivel cable.</p><p>That said, as with any circular, it’s still worth fitting the joins properly and letting the cable hang naturally, without forcing it with sudden twists.</p></div>

What are the little holes at the ends of the cable for?

<div class="faq-answer"><p>They’re designed for inserting the tightening key to secure the join between the cable and the tip (which helps reduce the chance of it coming loose).</p><p>Also, those holes can be used to thread a <b>lifeline</b>: a thin strand that “saves” a round of stitches in case you need to rip back or try the garment on without the work slipping off.</p></div>

Is this set suitable for knitting sleeves, socks or small circumferences?

<div class="faq-answer"><p>With 13 cm (approx. 5 in) tips, it’s usually comfortable for medium circumferences (necklines, bodies, shawls, etc.). For very small circumferences (narrow sleeves or socks), many knitters prefer shorter tips or techniques such as magic loop with a long cable.</p><p>This set includes 100 cm (approx. 39 in), which is a useful length if you want to use magic loop when the pattern allows.</p></div>

How do you look after the wooden tips of the KnitPro Cubics 13 cm (approx. 5 in) Interchangeable Circular Needle Set?

<div class="faq-answer"><p>The basics: always store them in the case so they don’t get knocked, and avoid prolonged damp or direct heat. The tips are wooden with a smooth finish, so a dry cloth is usually enough to keep them clean.</p><p>If you notice a join coming loose, use the key to tighten it firmly (without overdoing it) and check there’s no fluff in the thread.</p></div>

What is this type of product called, and what terms do people search for?

<div class="faq-answer"><p>As well as “set”, people often search for <b>interchangeable circular needles</b>, <b>interchangeable needle set</b> or <b>KnitPro needle set</b>. In international shops you’ll also see the term “<b>cube-shaped interchangeable circular needle set</b>” to refer to the cubic shape.</p><p>If you want to refine your search, the most effective approach is usually to include brand + range + length, for example <b>“KnitPro Cubics 13 cm interchangeable needle set”</b>.</p></div></div>

KnitPro Cubics 13 cm Interchangeable Circular Needle Set: what’s included and what makes it different

If you’re looking for an all-round set with a different feel from traditional round needles, the KnitPro Cubics 13 cm Interchangeable Circular Needle Set stands out thanks to its cubic/square profile: it gives you more control in the hand and helps stop the stitch from “wobbling” as you knit, without losing a smooth glide as the yarn moves.

As for what’s included, this set comes with 7 pairs of 13 cm Cubics tips in 4.00 / 4.50 / 5.00 / 5.50 / 6.00 / 7.00 / 8.00 mm, plus 4 Swivel 360° cables to create total lengths of 60, 80, 80 and 100 cm (with tips attached). This covers everything from smaller garments to projects with lots of stitches, without having loose needles scattered everywhere.

It also includes 8 stoppers, 4 cable keys and 1 set of connectors, and it comes stored in an envelope-style fabric case, with compartments for tips and a zipped pocket for cables and accessories.

How to choose your size and cable with the KnitPro Cubics 13 cm Interchangeable Circular Needle Set

In this kit, the 4.00–8.00 mm range is very much geared towards everyday knitting projects: DK, Worsted/Aran and other medium-weight yarns. To get it right, let your pattern’s swatch guide you: if the fabric feels stiff, go up half a size; if it’s too loose, go down. The beauty of a KnitPro Cubics 13 cm interchangeable circular needle set is that you can adjust without having to buy another fixed circular.

The cables also make a real difference. In this set you have 60 cm (very handy for necklines and smaller projects), 80 cm (the most versatile size) and 100 cm (for lots of stitches, larger shawls or magic loop). Because they’re Swivel 360° cables, the join rotates and helps reduce the cable twist that can build up when you work many rounds in a row.

One more useful detail: the cable ends have holes for using the tightening key, and they can also be used to thread a lifeline (a safety strand) when you want to try the garment on or protect a critical round.

Recommended projects for the KnitPro Cubics 13 cm Interchangeable Circular Needle Set

This set is a particularly good fit if you like projects where tension control matters: top-down jumpers, cardigans, shawls with crisp stitch definition, cabled or textured pieces, and blankets in medium weights. With cubic-shaped needles (in wood), many knitters notice a more stable grip, especially if they tend to knit tightly or get tired with fully round needles.

It’s also a great “core set” if you don’t want to collect fixed circulars: with 7 sizes and 4 lengths you can cover a huge number of patterns without improvising. And if you pause mid-project, the stoppers let you hold stitches safely, without worrying about your work slipping off.

If you’re coming from other KnitPro sets, the approach here is clear: comfortable grip + swivel cable + a tidy case. Exactly what most knitters are after when they want to buy the KnitPro Cubics 13 cm Interchangeable Circular Needle Set as their main set (or as a second set to alternate projects).
