Seeknit Koshitsu Bamboo Circular Needles (Fixed)

Japanese precision. Refined bamboo. Quiet luxury you can feel.

Seeknit Koshitsu fixed circular needles are designed for knitters who can feel the difference between simply good tools and truly refined ones. The term Koshitsu refers to a specialized treatment that hardens and densifies natural bamboo, increasing its strength, stability, and longevity while preserving its warmth and lightness.

This is not a decorative label or marketing language. It is material engineering, executed with Japanese precision and restraint.

Japanese craftsmanship and heritage
Seeknit needles are made in Japan by Kinki Amibari Co., a manufacturer with over 100 years of experience dedicated to bamboo knitting tools. Each pair reflects generations of expertise, where balance, consistency, and tactile accuracy are as important as exact sizing.

Koshitsu-treated Japanese bamboo
Carefully selected Japanese moso bamboo undergoes a proprietary heat and pressure process that densifies the internal structure of the material. As a result, Koshitsu bamboo:

• becomes harder and more wear-resistant;

• maintains dimensional stability over time;

• develops a smoother, more refined surface;

• provides improved stitch control, especially on fine needle sizes.

The feeling in the hands is more precise and collected than standard bamboo, offering greater control without sacrificing comfort.

Refined tips and seamless transitions
Seeknit Koshitsu needle tips are shaped for accuracy without sharpness. They pick up stitches effortlessly without splitting yarn. The transition from bamboo to the metal joint is perfectly smooth, allowing stitches to glide freely with no catching.

Signature memory-free cables
Seeknit’s transparent cables are designed to disappear in use. They are flexible, resistant to twisting, and completely free of memory. The cable follows natural hand movement without drag or tension, even during extended knitting sessions.

Wide range of sizes and cable lengths
Seeknit Koshitsu fixed circular needles are available in a broad range of needle sizes, from fine gauges for lace and delicate projects to larger sizes for structured garments. Multiple cable lengths accommodate small circumferences as well as larger pieces such as sweaters, cardigans, and blankets.

Sustainability through durability
Bamboo is a fast-growing, renewable resource. The Koshitsu treatment enhances durability and longevity, reducing the need for frequent replacement and supporting a more sustainable approach to premium tool making.

Who these needles are for
These needles are made for knitters who value precision, knit for long periods, appreciate subtle material differences, and prefer understated luxury that works quietly in the background.

Seeknit Koshitsu fixed circular needles are not simply bamboo needles. They are refined, hardened, and perfected — Japanese precision you can feel in every stitch.
