FAQs

Can I use these needles with cables from other brands?

No, these needles are specifically designed to be used with the Milward Interchangeable Cable system.

Are these needles suitable for beginners?

Yes, the wooden texture provides a slight grip that can help prevent dropped stitches, making them excellent for learners.

What is the length of the needle tip?

Each individual needle tip in this pack measures 14cm.

How should I clean my needles?

These needles should not be washed. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe them clean after use.

What kind of wood are these needles made from?

They are crafted from a fusion of three different, sustainably sourced natural woods without artificial dyes.

Troubleshooting

The connection between the needle and cable keeps coming loose

Ensure you are using a tightening tool if included, or ensure the thread is completely clean of fiber buildup before tightening firmly.

Yarn catches at the junction point

Check that the Glydon joint is fully screwed in. If it is, verify that there is no debris in the thread and that you are using an official Milward cable.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Smooth and snag-free transition with the Glydon joint
  • Ergonomic weight distribution reduces repetitive strain
  • Eco-friendly construction with no artificial dyes
  • High-precision craftsmanship for consistent stitch gauge

Cons

  • Not compatible with third-party needle cable systems
  • Cannot be washed, requiring careful handling to keep clean
  • Requires separate purchase of Milward Interchangeable Cables

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your needle system, simply align the threaded end of your chosen Milward Interchangeable Cable with the Glydon joint screw on the 14cm needle tip and rotate until secure. Ensure the connection is tight to prevent gaps where yarn might catch. Regarding compatibility, these needles are designed exclusively for the Milward Interchangeable range; they will not fit industry-standard universal threaded cables. For care, avoid submerging the needles in water or using heavy cleaning chemicals, as moisture can compromise the natural wood integrity. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe them down periodically to remove natural oils or dust.
