Seeknit Shirotake Flex. knitting needle 50cm 2-15.00mm - 1pc

Made from the most premium quality aged Japanese bamboo, these knitting needles are the perfect balance between strong and flexible. This bamboo is especially hardened and resilient, which ensures strong and durable needles. These Seeknit flexible knitting needles with a stopper are loose, straight knitting needle tips that are extended by means of a nylon cable. The polished surface of the needles is soft to the touch and allows the yarn to slide easily over the needle. The transparent nylon cable is flexible and durable and ensures ultimate knitting comfort. This flexible knitting needle has an independently rotating cable connection (swivel cord), which ensures that the cable does not kink. At the end of the cables there is a wooden stopper, which keeps your work on the cable. The flexible knitting needles have a total length of 50cm and are available in sizes 2.00 - 15.00mm. 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.
