ChiaoGoo Forte 2 Needle Set

ChiaoGoo Forte 2 has arrived

This new release to the original Forte set sees an upgrade to ultra strong carbon fibre on the smaller sized tips and TWIST (red) cables included with the SWIV360 cables

With a bucket load of notions and a beautiful REACH compliant case, this really is the pinnacle of interchangeable sets.

Made of REACH compliant man-made material, the Forté case is just as elegant and functional as the tips and cables. It includes a double-sided, removable needle board that firmly houses all tips; elastic that securely holds but gives easy access to accessories; and four pockets to hold the rest of your knitting supplies including a spot for your pattern or notes. And, true to ChiaoGoo form, it opens book-style with a full zipper enclosure to ensure that nothing falls out.

ChiaoGoo Forte set includes:

• *14 pairs of 5” (13cm) tips 2.75 – 10mm including 3mm.
• 2.75mm - 5mm Have a Carbon Fibre Shaft
• 5.5mm - 10mm Have Luxurious African Blackwood Shaft
• Six memory-free SWIV360™ cables
• Three Red TWIST Cables 
• Steel scissors
• Measuring tape
• End stoppers
• Stitch markers
• Darning needles
• Needle/swatch gauge and more come with the set

All Forté parts and pieces have [S] or [L] size joins so they are switchable with all of ChiaoGoo’s other similarly coded interchangeable parts. Each threaded steel join is laser etched with the tip diameter and join size which will not wear off, ever.

About ChiaoGoo

At Knit With Me we stock ChiaoGoo, one of the most respected names in premium knitting needles and crochet hooks. ChiaoGoo is a family business with craftsmanship in its blood, founded by four brothers from Linan, the Bamboo Capital of China, whose grandfather was a travelling bamboo craftsman and whose father built a workshop making bamboo knitting needles in the early 1980s. The name ChiaoGoo means “highly skillful and crafty lady”, a tribute to the brothers’ mother, an expert knitter who tested every needle and knitted to keep her family of seven warm through long winters.

Today ChiaoGoo tools are designed in Michigan, crafted in Hangzhou and loved by knitters and crocheters worldwide for their precision, smooth joins and famously sharp tips. From interchangeable needle sets and circulars to double points and crochet hooks, every ChiaoGoo tool is built for every project, every time.
