A detail to love.

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.
