Portuguese Knitting Pins

Portuguese Knitting Pins make tension control and colorwork a breeze, a must have for Portuguese style knitting! Place the pin on either shoulder, the higher the placement the better your tension. Start with one pin for single color projects and add more for each yarn in your complex colorwork pieces. The pins can be worn on shirts, aprons, and knitwear, or pinned to an undershirt or shoulder-strap and poked through your hand knits for more security and a cleaner look.
