HOW IT'S MADE

Chiagoo is a family owned business, started by four brothers who grew up in the Bamboo Capital of China. The inspiration for the brand name "Chiaogoo" came from their mother, who was an avid knitter, and means "highly skilled and crafty lady". Today, they make all their hooks and needles out of high quality materials in China, and are considered one of the best knitting needle manufacturers in the world.

BEST SUITED FOR

This Yellow Shorties Set is perfect for small-circumference projects that require yarns at a worsted, aran, or bulky weight, like mitts, hats, baby items, sleeves, etc. This is a great set for knitters that don't like using Magic Loop, as you can create very small circumferences with it. You can also expand your set in the future with longer cords.
