Clover 3161 Circular Short Stitch Holder, 9 to 16-Inch , Green

The more I knit the more I need things like this to make it easy.

Did a great job on some sleeve stitches I needle to hold on a top down sweater. Much better than the metal safety pin type.! I will buy another!

I’ve got multiples of these now, in this size and the larger one, and I’ve considered buying more just in case they’re ever discontinued. I much prefer this to using scrap yarn, and as long as you’ve got your stitches on in the right direction, you can just knit them off once you’re ready to use those live stitches again. They’ve been invaluable during some sweater knitting I’ve been doing, where it’s bottom up, and I need to keep the shoulder pieces, both front and back, on hold. Sure, scrap yarn would do just as well, or those expensive silicone cords from Finland or wherever they come from, but this works best for me. The only improvement I would ask for is a shorter length, for things like glove fingers. Having really tiny holders would be brilliant, although I’ve used these and made them work for gloves. I suppose I need to pass that on to Clover, though, if I want it to become a reality. Honestly, I’d strongly encourage you to get this wonderful stitch holder if you’re even considering it. You won’t be sorry. Get the longer one too while you’re at it. I think they’re indispensable for sweaters, and just all around superior to scrap yarn.

These stitch holders are the answer to preventing stitches from being pulled too tightly in places like underarm seams, etc. I finds self utilizing them more frequently on place of other types of stitch holders, as well. I highly recommend these stitch holder as part of the necessary toolset for experienced knitters.

Usually, when knitting a top-down sweater, there comes a time when you have to divide for the sleeves. now that I have these stitch holders, they make the sleeves secure without trimming additional yarn. The 9-16 inch size is absolutely perfect for sleeves, and the green circular piece allows threading the point through it, making the sleeves just about perfect while youre knitting the body. I bought a second one (i had gotten one in each size previously) in the 9-16 size. Im really happy with them, and they are now part of my daily tools.

Excellent holder for lots of stitches - useful for top down sweaters. Easier than using multiple stitch holders. Can knit off the needle when youre ready to pick up the stitches.

This is so much easier to use than the usual stitch holders because its so flexible. Very helpful when knitting sweaters from the neck down and putting the sleeves on holders while completing the body of the work. Buy two!

The BEST for holding top-down arm holes while you finish the body.
