Each bamboo has different color Since bamboo knitting needles are made of natural materials, the fiber, color, and texture are different for each one. Koshitsu bamboo needles treated with high temperature and high pressure have different colors ranging from light to dark brown. In addition, the color may change with the years of use.
Precautions for use and storage Since this product is made of natural bamboo, please do not wet it with water or expose it to steam. When wet, the surface fibers of the bamboo needles become frayed and less slippery. To prevent mold, wipe with a dry cloth after use.
Handle gently Bamboo knitting needles are made of natural material, so if you use excessive force, the needle may break, causing scratches or dents. If you hold the needle too tightly while knitting, the needle may break, such as when the stitches are tight. Do not use excessive force and handle the needle gently.
Laser engraving The size for each bamboo knitting needle is laser engraved. The bamboo has a hard outer part and a soft inner part. In addition, because the density and hardness of the fibers vary from bamboo to bamboo, there are differences in the depth and color of the engraving.

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.
