What does it do?

What does it do?

Keeps stitches from falling off. Great for people who have many WIPs or cats?

Thank you.

I have several rubbery ones, none of which are in your picture. I call them end stops and currently have two in use holding stitches on a circular needle.

Me, too. They're also called point protectors. And in a pinch, if you don't have any - or not enough - cut up an eraser, poke a hole in one end and use that. Small rubber bands work, too.

I have the point protectors and also can use those rubber erasers that you can buy to put on the end of a pencil. The Dollar Tree sells those.

As do wine corks.

foam earplugs at Dollar store, and they come in a nice little tube!

Thanks for sharing this.????

I have seen those, but since I use only my interchangeable sets, I can easily unscrew the tips and place an end cap on them.

As Aqua said,cearplugs from dollar store!

I haven't seen them before either but they are just an improved sort of point protector, aren't they? I suppose if you have 100s of stitches on your needle they might be useful!!

Those look handy!

I haven't used these before. However, I love these circular needle protectors that I found at a knitting store near me. You can use them with many size needles though at first it looks as if you can only use with smaller needles. However, I've found that with larger needles all you have to do is slip one in first and advance it down the tube, then slip the other one in.
