KNITPRO Nova Cubics fixed circular needles are for knitters who want a long circular needle for knitting in the round or working flat with a set length. This fixed circular needle is 120 cm (47 in) with 5.5 mm tips, suited to larger- circumference projects like shawls, blankets, and sweater bodies. Select the size your pattern calls for and store the needle relaxed to help it stay ready for consistent stitch movement while you knit.
