Seeknit Shirotake Tuni. double. cro. hook 15cm - 1pc

This Seeknit Shirotake Tunisian double crochet hook is ideal for Tunisian crocheting (in the round) of medium-sized projects, such as hats or scarves. Using this crochet hook will deliver gorgeous patterns, especially when using multiple colours of yarn. Pick up 15-20 stitches in one yarn colour on one side of hook, turn and work stitches from that side up until the last 2-3 stitches with a different colour. Turn the piece again and pick up 15-20 stitches in the first shade, turn again and work the stitches in the other colour, and so on. The Shirotake crochet hooks are made with light-weight, sustainable bamboo and have a beautiful natural colour. They feel wonderfully soft thanks to the smooth polished surface and the stitches glide smoothly on and off the needle. The needle size is clearly visible and laser imprinted onto the needle. The Seeknit Shirotake Tunisian double crochet hooks are 15cm long and are available in needle size 3.50-6.00mm. Supplied per 1 piece.

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.
