Knitting Things have been specialising in Bamboo Knitting Needles since 2004.    Bamboo knitting needles provide a warm and natural touch for easy knitting.  They are smooth to the touch and lightweight, their smooth surface makes them easy to hold.  Bamboo consists of a lot of tough vertical fibres, and is a natural material with strength and flexibility which improves with age.  The more you knit, the smoother they become.  They are 60% lighter than the same size aluminium needles, so your hands won't tire - even after hours of knitting.  Bamboo needles are quiet, unlike metal needles, the stitches stay on the needles much easier and are less likely to slip off. 
They flex when you are using them, therefore putting less strain on your joints so they are ideal if you have arthritis, rheumatism or are prone to sore wrists.
Caring for your bamboo knitting needles:
Bamboo knitting needles do not really need a lot of care but if you use them frequently you may find they will benefit from a light sanding every now and then to keep them nice and smooth and to keep the tips from breaking your yarn.  With just this little bit of maintenance you should be able to enjoy your bamboo needles for years to come.

Due to customer demand, we decided to stock knitting yarns and patterns specialising in King Cole products.  King Cole are a family run business, established in 1935.  They are continually developing innovative colours, textures and designs and have a vast selection of knitting and crochet patterns.  Visit their web site King Cole to see their full range of yarns or download the 2010 pattern catalogue.  If we haven't got any of their products in stock, please email or telephone us and we will get it for you.
