Clover Point Protectors: Petit, Other, Multicoloured

I purchased these to go on the tips of my 2.25 - 2.5mm circular sock needles, they fit on the tips really well and do not come off when the knitting is stored in its bag, very pleased with them and have since ordered another pack.

Great

I learned to knit a few months ago, and aside from the technique itself two of the things that I had most trouble with were :1 - worrying about stitches falling off the needles when I put them away, and;2 - accidentally stabbing myself with knitting needles as I carried them around in a bag.I'm used to crochet, these were entirely new problems for me, so I really like these point protectors. They solve both of those problems! Plus they fit the range of needles I currently own, and feel pretty secure. I don't own a lot of pink things, so they're easy for me to find when I inevitably drop them, and they make the needle tips just that little bit less jabby then you forget that you're carrying around two foot-long spikes.

Until I found these point protectors I was using twisted loom bands to keep stitches on needles when making socks.Not only time consuming but very fiddly. In my mind I knew exactly what I wanted but the only protectors were much too large to fit on needles without impacting other needle stitches. These Clover protectors do a really good job and are easy to put on and take off. Now I can happily knit socks on four short needles. Highly recommended, Thank you Clover.

These are such a little luxury when knitting. They're small, lightweight and very easy to use. You simply push them onto the tips of your needles and because of the rubbery material they're made of, they stay there and are very easy to take off.These ones (petit) will fit 2mm to 6.5mm needles. As you can see from my pictures, I'm using them with a tiny 2.5mm circular needle and a 4.5mm and they work equally well for both. No more dropped stitches, needles poking through knitting bags, or being stabbed by needles. Highly recommend.

Soft supple and strong. Keep stitches safely on needle. Can even use them for making double pointed needles into normal mini knittting needles.

Fab to keep your stitches on. I have used for both a 2.5 and a 3.5 mm needle and been very secure for both. Brilliant for circular needles and projects like hats or socks.
