We are sure you’ll enjoy this Seeknit Shirotake bamboo knitting needle set in a stylish storage pouch for many years to come! The Shirotake knitting and crochet hooks by the Japanese family business Kinki Amibari are made with natural-coloured and sustainable bamboo. The needles are smoothly polished with natural plant wax, which not only gives them a brilliant shine, but also feels wonderfully soft. The stitches glide on and off the needle extremely smoothly. The bamboo needles have a pointed tip and the size is clearly visible and laser imprinted on the needle. The cotton storage pouch features two rows of transparent pockets (12 x narrow pockets on the front, 6 x wider ones at the back), which not only fit the single-pointed knitting needles in this set, but can also store crochet hooks or double-pointed knitting needles. The storage pouch is made from pure cotton and PVC, closes with tie straps and is available in 3 different colours/designs.

Once folded three times, the pouch measures 26 x 14 x 3cm, making it easy to carry with you on the go. Once unfolded, the storage pouch measures 35 x 28cm. The knitting needle set consists of 8 pairs of single-pointed knitting needles of 23cm in length, in needle sizes 3.00, 3.50, 4.00, 4.50, 5.00, 5.50, 6.00 and 8.00mm. Supplied in a pouch containing 8 pairs of bamboo single-pointed needles.

 

The best needle for silk, thin cotton and other very thin fabrics. Their superior polished finish
allows them to glide easily through the fine fabric.

The transparent SPIN cables are made from nylon and rotate freely at the joints, which prevents the cables from being twisted to increase the knitting pleasure signifi - cantly. The SPIN nylon cables are available in S (small) and L (large). All SPIN cables have a small hole in the connecting piece through which the connection can be tightened with the help of a tightening key and the end stoppers can be fastened to secure the knitting projects.

Product upgrade on customer demand: Introducing the new SWIV360 interchangeable cables.
Combined the famous patented red Twist metal cable (with their unchallenged memory) with the rotating action of the SPIN cables.
Available in both small (S) and large (L) join sizes.
Result: The latest in needle cables.

A useful tool for combining two cables together. Extremely useful while handling large projects. These cable connectors come with a tightening slot for a secure join.

Packaging:

IMPORTANT:

A cable key should always be used to tighten the connector to the cable. It is very important to make the connection very tight otherwise the connector could become loose and the knitting might unravel.

 

For fixing the screw connections between needle or end stopper and cable. The tightening keys are available in two sizes. One for the MINI series and another for S and L connections.

For XXL projects the cables can be extended using the cable connectors. The cable connectors are particularly short to provide a seamless transition from cable to cable. The cable connectors are available in sizes M (mini), S (small) and L (large).

The needles have a builtin threader.
