➤ Why iDOKNiT Chose It
At iDOKNiT, I choose tools the same way I choose yarn — for quality, performance, and true usefulness for knitters. I selected this ChiaoGoo TWIST SS Small Set because it covers one of the most useful everyday size ranges, gives knitters the flexibility of an interchangeable system, and includes the shorter 4" tips needed for smaller circular knitting. This is a practical, trusted set for knitters who want precision, comfort, and flexibility in one compact case.

✧ Cable Details
One of the best-known features of the TWIST system is the red cable. ChiaoGoo describes these cables as memory free, meaning they are designed to resist tight coiling and twisting while you knit. They are made from a multi-strand steel cable coated with red nylon, which gives them flexibility and strength.

⋔ What Makes the 4" Set Special
This 4" version is the practical choice when you want to make shorter circulars, including 16" circular needles, which are commonly used for hats and other smaller-circumference projects. The official ChiaoGoo set details specifically tie the 4" Small Set to 16", 22", and 30" circulars.

⫯ Best For
• Hats
• Sleeves
• Necklines
• Baby knits
• Smaller circular projects
• Knitters who prefer stainless steel lace tips
• Knitters who want the ability to make 16" circulars from one set

⟳ Compatibility
ChiaoGoo states that TWIST and SPIN tips, cables, and accessories are switchable. This makes the system easy to expand later with compatible parts, as long as the join size matches. ChiaoGoo’s FAQ also notes that all [S] tips, cables, end stoppers, and cable connectors are laser coded.

⚑ Important Note
This listing is for the 4" (10 cm) Small Set only — item 7400-S. It is not the 5" set, not the MINI set, and not the complete set. The official ChiaoGoo size range for 7400-S is US 2–8 / 2.75–5 mm.

✦ Why Knitters Love It
This set combines the smooth precision of surgical stainless steel lace tips with ChiaoGoo’s flexible memory-free red cables in one of the most useful small size ranges. For knitters who regularly make hats, sleeves, baby knits, and other smaller-circumference pieces, this 4" Small Set is one of the most practical interchangeable options in the ChiaoGoo line.
