Koshitsu Bamboo
Koshitsu are bamboo needles with brown color. After going through our unique high-temperature and pressure treatment, Koshitsu needles are carefully polished with natural plant wax. This special treatment gives the bamboo extra durability.
It also prevents the needles from warping. The surface treatment gives a comfortable and smooth movement of the threads and a warm touch.
Bamboo in Japan
Kinki Amibari Co., Ltd. has been manufacturing knitting needles of selected Japanese bamboo since 1916 in Japan. We only use carefully selected Moso bamboo grown in Japan.
Bamboo that grows in Japan is especially hard and resilient, reinforced by strong and durable fibers.
