Lykke - 80cm Cable - Standard Braided Steel Cord

Lykke Flight Interchangeable Cables - Standard Braided Steel Cords

Compatibility

These Standard cables are meant for Lykke Flight tips in sizes 3.25mm and larger, they will also fit Lykke Driftwood & Cypra needles.

Designed exclusively for the standard-size tips of the Lykke Flight interchangeable system, these Standard Braided Steel Cords deliver precision, durability and ease for your knitting.

Why knitters love them

• Smooth, snag-free joins: The transition between cable and needle tip is seamless, letting stitches glide effortlessly - no catching, no slowing down.
• Perfectly designed tips: Lykke Flight tips screw in securely and sit flush with the cord. Combined with the swivel mechanism, they give you total freedom of movement without loosening mid-knit.
• Steel core strength, plastic-coated glide: These cables have a braided stainless steel core wrapped in a slick plastic coating - tough but flexible, with just the right amount of drape.
• Built-in swivel: Each cord rotates at the join to eliminate twisting, coiling, and resistance as you work.
• Balanced feel: Their subtle weight adds a premium feel to your knitting, grounding your hands without adding drag.

Please note: the smaller mini-cable variants are required for the 2.00mm–3.00mm tip range. Click here for cables suitable for Mini sizes

FaQ: It says "with 3.5" tip", can I use this with 5" tips? - Yes! This only refers to the total length of the cable + tips, not compatibility.
