    I knitted the toe of socks 4 ply yarn and all the time my stitches got stuck.
    I hate it!
    Are there other brand cables that do not get stuck all the time?

    Thanks for this review detailing the pros and cons of both cables. I really like the red lace cables and could not help but try the swivel cable. I like the swivel for the ease of connecting multiple cords. The snagging issue seems to be very common with swivel cords especially when knitting with smaller needles. Your tip on pulling from the cable, not the tip would be helpful for those using magic loop. Can't wait for your review of the Forté needles. 😆

      I need more time with swiv360. This video was my first reaction. I want to try it with finer yarns.
      Fortes are coming! I cant believe it!!! I am following shipment tracking like a hawk!!!

      @@purLZknitting That's great - your order did go through! Did you say you got $75 off? - what an amazing deal!
      After watching your videos, I decided to invest in the Thread and Maple binder. I have been looking for a solution for a long time to deal with all my needles and their product is beautiful. Of course stock is very low so I'm hoping to pick up the jumbo binder during a restock .

      @@purLZknitting Too funny - i'm so excited for you. Thanks for that - I signed up for their program at FDF. T&M had a Black Friday sale where you could receive a free page with $375 order, but they were sold out of many items.

    I am super surprised but they seem to be catching yarn more than swivel cords from Knit Pro Mindful series. I was so excited about them but after this review... Not so much...

    This seems to be common with various swivel cords . That little extra room for the cables to spin, creates a catch :(

    I stick a few red cables in my Forte case for those times when my thin yarn gets hung up. Its not all the time but its all brands with swivels.

      I completely agree! And honestly I really dont see a point of swivels. I dont see a real help. The cables became so sophisticated that they dont really need that swivel action.

    The 360 cables are very nice, but the snag at the rotating point is so annoying!!!
