Seeknit Koshitsu Inter. needle premium set 12.5cm mini - 1pc

This Seeknit Koshitsu Premium Set Mini with interchangeable circular knitting needles will guarantee you years of knitting fun! This set combines the popular Seeknit Premium Set 2 and the Seeknit Case Mini. The set contains knitting needle tips of 12.5cm length in the most common sizes and, considering a very wide choice of smaller-size needles, is ideal for lacework patterns and knitting with fine yarns. The Japanese company Kinki Amibari developed a production process for the Koshitsu knitting needles 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 factors - it prevents warping, for example - but also makes them particularly durable and wonderfully smooth. The yarn glides effortlessly over the knitting needle - in short, they are an absolute joy to knit with! All Seeknit bamboo knitting needles have a pointed tip and the needle size is clearly visible and laser imprinted on the needle. The cables are extremely flexible and thanks to the seamless twist connection with the needle tips, twists, kinks or snags are now a thing of the past! This gorgeous complete set includes the following:

The pouch features 14 pockets for interchangeable needle tips and 4 pockets for cables and other accessories. The needle tip compartments are suitable for 5cm and 12.5cm needle tips. The unfolded pouch measures 28 x 27cm. Supplied per 1 piece.

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

Both the Shirotake and the Koshitsu needles are made from 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, this gives the needles a wonderful feel. The needles in the Koshitsu series undergo a high pressure treatment 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. This also prevents the wood from warping. The result is a comfortable and smooth knitting experience with needles that feel wonderfully warm to the touch.
