Bamboo Circular Knitting Needles 60cm
CloverClover's Takumi Bamboo Knitting Needles are of exceptionally high quality and lightweight and comfortable to knit with.
The quality begins with only the finest, straight mature bamboo being choose to use in the manufacture of the knitting needles.
A sustainable material
As bamboo grows much faster than trees, it is gaining attention as an eco-friendly material.
Only the most premium parts of the bamboo are used for the needles
Place of origin is limited to cold areas with little snow
Bamboo in cold areas with little snow is very resistant to bending making this bamboo most desirable for knitting needles. Heavy snow conditions result in bent bamboo.
We harvest bamboo only during winter and use only the highest quality bamboo with tightly packed fibers
"Takumi uses only bamboo of a key age (of 4 to 5 years) that gives it strength as well as uniform width and length.
Young bamboo less than 3 years old is too soft while bamboo older than 5 years is too fragile. 4 to 5 year old bamboo is the most durable bamboo to use. Cutting period is limited to winter. Bamboo in winter has less moisture and the fiber is more compact."
