This bundle pairs a set of Knit Picks interchangeable needles with a custom handmade leather needle case from Thread & Maple. It's a premium kit, meant to cover most of a knitter's projects from one case.
The leather case is the standout. A good case keeps tips and cords organized and protected, and a handmade leather one is something a knitter can carry for years, softening and darkening as it's used.
It's for a knitter who already knows they love interchangeables and wants a beautiful version of the set, or a special gift for a dedicated knitter.
Good for
- Knitters upgrading their needle set
- Keeping a needle collection together
- Sweaters, hats and shawls from one kit
- A special gift
Using it
Screw each tip onto its cord firmly and check the join now and then on long projects, since a loosening tip can snag. Swatch on the tips you'll use, because each material knits up a little differently. Our gauge guide walks through it. If you're unsure which tip material suits you, see the needle types guide.
Looking after it
Leather wants occasional attention. Wipe the case with a dry cloth, keep it out of long periods of direct sun and away from heat, and let it dry naturally if it gets wet. A leather conditioner now and then keeps it supple. Coil cords loosely inside.
