Seeknit Koshitsu double-pointed needle set 15cm E - 1pc

These Seeknit Koshitsu bamboo double pointed needles in a stylish storage case guarantee hours of knitting fun! The Japanese company Kinki Amibari has developed a production process that enhances the natural properties of bamboo. After the knitting needles have undergone a high-pressure treatment under high temperatures, they are carefully polished with natural plant wax. This not only protects the knitting needles against external influences - it prevents warping, for example - but also makes them particularly durable and wonderfully smooth. The knitting yarn then glides smoothly over the knitting needle - in short, they are a pleasure to knit with! Ideal for knitting socks, of course, but also other small items such as leg warmers, wrist warmers, hats or mittens. The set consists of no less than 7 sets of needles of 15cm length in the sizes: 2.00, 2.50, 3.00, 3.50, 4.00, 4.50 and 5.00mm (5 needles per size). The fabric case contains a total of 18 pockets for knitting needles and accessories and is available in 3 different colours and designs: dark blue/cherry blossoms, pink/cherry blossoms and red/dragonfly. Supplied per 1 set.

General information applicable to all Shirotake and Koshitsu needles and needle sets

Both the Shirotake and Koshitsu needles are made with bamboo, but the finish is different. The surface of the Shirotake series has a smooth finish with natural plant wax, which gives the needles a beautiful shine. Further, they feel wonderful to the touch. On the other hand, the needles in the Koshitsu series undergo a high-pressure and heat treatment. The surface is then smoothed with natural plant wax. This special treatment ensures that the needles are extra strong and durable and protects them against harmful external influences. In addition, this prevents the wood from warping. The result is a comfortable and smooth knitting experience with needles that feel wonderfully warm to the touch.
