Asymmetrical Fixed Circular Needles by Knit Pro

These 10" cable length needles are the asymmetrical variety for Zing Circular needles. They come with two needle tip lengths. One tip is 1.75" and the other is 2.75"

Why asymmetric?

Asymmetric circular knitting needles offer a unique advantage for knitters working on small projects "in the round," such as socks and sleeves. Holding the longer needle in the right hand and the shorter in the left allows for a more comfortable ergonomic feel.
