Cable stopper with metal insert on KnitPicks Reflections, as opposed to simple plastic stopper on KnitPro cable.
Doesn’t it fill your chest with satisfaction?

    And since we’re nerding it: They could have gone the extra step to use the same metal for insert and screw. But as long as I don’t bathe my interchangeables in salt water, we should be safe from galvanic corrosion.

    That’s knit-picking, you say? (I couldn’t help it, sorry)

      I don’t knit and I have no idea what this is for but I’ll be honest, it still did fill my chest with satisfaction. I love specialized hobby tools

        “Specialized hobby tools” sounds like a community I would join… BTW, I’m a little proud that I attracted attention from the local timeline :) If you stick around, we might even convert you to knitting!

    Those plastic stoppers are forever pinging off my KnitPros so I may be late to this post but I am definitely also jealous!

      They are compatible, so you can always buy a couple :)
      That is, if you live in one of the four countries they ship to. I don’t, and although I’d love their lace set too, I don’t want to ask my UK-based friend for a favour again.
