We created these interchangeable cases specifically for Chiaogoo needle sets. Although most Chiaogoo sets come with their own cases, they don't offer an integrated needle storage solution. These cases are both versatile and portable, folding in half with rotating snaps to a more compact size than the standard Chiaogoo case. They also lay flat with the closure snaps neatly tucked, to be inserted as a page into the Needle Binder, to keep your Chiaogoos together with the rest of your needle collection. Another neat features is they can also be folded backwards and made to stand.

For pages on which all the needles fit on half the pages, you can select between two page styles:

  • Mini Rolodex: This innovative design features four zip-locking sheaths and label stickers, making it ideal for keeping cables neatly organized. There is a small zip compartment behind the sheaths for connectors and keys.
  • Snap Pocket: This option provides ample gusseted pocket for larger items and is perfect for those who need a bit more room to store their materials. You may opt to add on a set of Cables Organizer Ziplock Pouches to stow and label your cables within.

Both page styles come with Velcro tab needle bands designed specifically for your Chiaogoo interchangeable knitting needle set.

Called Forté for good reason, these Chiaogoo needles are *very* strong. Made of beautiful African black wood, they feature a stainless steel tip for a perfect combination of smooth comfortable grip and sharp tip. The joins are very smooth and the no-memory cables feature a swivel feature to prevent coiling and tangling. Each threaded steel fitting is laser engraved with the tip diameter and fitting size, which will never fade.

The Forté set includes 14 pairs of 5" (13cm) US 2 - 15 (2.75 - 10mm) needles.  In addition, all Forté parts have [S] or [L] size fittings and are therefore interchangeable with all other similarly coded interchangeable parts.

What's Included:

  • 8 Pairs of Carbon Fiber [S] 5" tips (US 2 through US 8) (2.75mm through 5.0mm)
  • 6 Pairs of African Blackwood [L] 5" tips (US 9 though US 15) (5.5mm through 10.0mm)
