Knit Extension Cords - Stitch Holder Cords

Sale price$17.00

"The “Knit Extension Cords–Stitch Holder Cords” are genius. I am currently making a sweater for my grandson and have used the cords several times to “block as I go” to be sure the gauge remains correct. The cord stays securely on the knitting needles and it’s easy to slide the stitches from the needle onto the cord."

Handmade With Love

Our stitch markers and row counters are proudly handmade by our team just for you.

You’ve got a few options…

Ever tried on a sweater in progress?

Slide your stitches onto the LONGEST circular needle you own and hope it is long enough so you don’t lose your stitches.

Combine multiple cords together into a franken cord and hope they hold.

Take a needle and waste yarn and slip every single stitch off the needle and onto the yarn

But we have a better idea...

Try our new Knitting Extension Cords!

Slide the tip of these hollow tube cords onto the tip of your needle and you’ve instantly got a cord extension. The slightly stretchy silicone material grips the needles tightly, preventing it from accidentally slipping off (even if it’s only on the very tip).

Then simply slide as many stitches onto your extension cord as you need to be able to try on your work, then slide them back when you’re ready to knit again.

Try them on a work in progress

Use as a stitch holder for live stitches

Spread out your knitting for instagram worthy photos

Spread out your knitting to accurately check gauge

Set of Three 60″ cords sized to fit your needles perfectly

Light Blue – Small (up to US 4)

Teal – Medium (up to US 8)

Purple – Large (up to US 15)

Love them!!

I got the Extension Cords - Stitch Holder cords and they work fantastic! I have been able to try my sweater on multiple times so easily! I had another brand x that pulled off my needle tips and also
Did not easily slide where the cords joins on the needle tips. Not this set, I highly recommend these!!

Little thicker than I’m use to

Not use to such thick cords. But should work well with larger needle. The odor is unpleasant.

Oh no Deb, I'm so sorry about that 😔
I took a look, and you ordered the all size bundle.
​Just to make sure, are the smaller cords not working on your smaller needles?
Here's a little video to help:

I'm also so sorry about the chemical smell! We have found that the PVC tubing can have a slight chemical smell but for some reason that particular scent hits some people MUCH harder than others. We've found the best option to handle any remaining smell is simply to wash with soap and hot water and let them dry and air out outside for a couple of days.

You can soak in a basin with hot water and dish soap, or throw them in with your laundry and let them run through a wash cycle (it won't hurt them, I promise!). If you find that the cords aren't working for you, or if the smell doesn't go away and they are just unusable, I am happy to take a return for a full refund.

Please know that I absolutely want you to be happy with your purchases!

It’s taken me awhile...

… but I finally got the chance to use an extension cord! I am in the process of knitting a sweater for my daughter and I wanted her to approve the length before I did the final ribbing (we all know how that could go very wrong, right? ;) The cord made it so easy! I didn’t have to take the piece off the needles and put it on scrap yarn to make it fit over her head. It took just a minute to double check and now I’m off and running again! Wish me luck as I head into the sleeve desert…

Yikes!!

As with many of the items I get here, I tend to order things that I know I’ll eventually use. My purchase of the Knitting Extension Cords is one of those items. This is my first negative review *sigh* …
Yes, they’re smelly, but I stuffed them into multiple sachets and that helped. MY PROBLEM was with how they grabbed onto the yarn I was using and started to pull and tear it! I had a lovely synthetic with a great halo; perfect for the oversized throw I was knitting. The material of the cords mangled the row I was using it on, to the point that I had to cut the cord out of the stitches, undo a few rows, and re-knit. Quite the horror show.
This is the first thing that has been a total fail. EVERY THING ELSE that I’ve bought has been a delight! Will I keep shopping…of course I will!

​Oh no Patti, I'm so sorry!
This is never the experience that I would want for you!

The knit extension cords are meant to be grippy but absolutely shouldn't grip so much that they tear your yarn.
I absolutely understand though, and I'm so sorry that it didn't work out for you!
Please know that I always want you to be happy and comfortable with your purchases!

I've sent a refund for that to your card and you should see a notification for that in your email now.
I can't tell you enough how much I appreciate you! I just feel so terrible that this happened! 😔
