The swiveling cable join prevents the cable from twisting while you work, and it's easy to attach without the use of any tools. This join ensures that needles never loosen while you are knitting. Length of the cable indicates the finished length of the assembled needle with CarryC Long needle tips attached. (Made in Japan.) About Tulip Founded in 1948 in Hiroshima, Japan, Tulip is a family-run business that started as a manufacturer of finishing needles. In 1953 they began to produce and export crochet and knitting needles for the handcraft industry and have since gained a reputation for high-quality craftsmanship. Today Tulip is run by the third generation of the Harada family, and their reputation for quality endures. Tulip strives to maintain the excellence demanded by the most discerning needlecrafters. As they put it, they have “an almost stubborn obsession with quality.” We're proud to support another family-owned business and to make this exceptional product available to our customers.
