Not actually used these yet but now I have them I can see how they work. I have not seen any pictures of them in use which might be why not many people buy them. When you have finished a session of circular knitting you push the knitting along the needles so the whole of the knitting pins are exposed. You then push the points of the pins through the black silicone cap so the lengths of the pins are enclosed - the silicome cap stops them sliding out so the knitting remains safe. The tubes are made of very light metal unlike the holders for double ended needles which are compressed paper/card. Like many things a largish initial outlay on something that you can use for years is worthwhile in the end.

After managing to lose stitches off the needle when pulling them out of my knitting bag I started to use ordinary needle protectors but found that they could still come off. Found these protectors specifically made for circular needles and they are brilliant. My knitting is now safe wherever I leave it as they are a snug fit. Would definitely recommend them
