Joyce;
What size cables did you get with the set? The site says 24 and 32. Did you get any others? My friend said it shows 3 in the picture. This set will not help for smaller projects. Can you buy smaller cables?
So far, my interests are, hats, scarves, maybe a blanket, small cases, surely not sweaters. What can I do?
Do they have the size 8 in 12 inch?
We were looking and ran out of time. I am interested in trying to make small items and use beads with in the knitting.
Terry P.

Terry,
Denise interchangeable needles you do not have to worry about them coming apart. They lock into place. They are going for $49.99 , but if you go to their website they have sets of them for $39.99. They are marked down because of something like a minor flaw on the case or something like that.
You get size 5 to size 15 needles with an array of different size cables that attach the needles. The lengths will give you something like size 16 circular needles going up to with combining the cables to something like 40 inches. They give you these things that allow you to attach the different lengths of cables together to give you these array of size lengths. Also you get these kinda locking knobs so you can use the cables as stitch holders or put them on the end of the cable with the needle pointt on the other ends and you can make up a pair of straight needles.
The wooden set from Knit Piks I am not sure what other length of cables they have, but it starts off with what will give you a 24 inch circular
needle. That does not help if you need a 16 inch circ.
