KA Needles Display Fine Japanese Craftsmanship in Bamboo

Founded in 1916 in Nara, Japan, KA is the oldest manufacturer of bamboo knitting needles in that country. KA's first product for the handcraft industry was bamboo ribs used to stretch and dry the traditional Japanese Kimono. It wasn't long before the company's technological expertise and innovation helped them develop the world's finest line of Bamboo knitting needle products.

Why bamboo? This material is certainly plentiful throughout Japan, with more than 500 different varieties available. But the experts at KA selected only two kinds of the finest aged bamboo to create its knitting needles. The bamboo used in KA Needles today is selected for its superior quality in color, gloss, density and flexibility. Hold a KA Needle in your hand and there is a distinctive lightweight and warm feeling, with a smooth satin finish and luster that is achieved only through the quality and craftsmanship put into the manufacturing process.

KA offers its Classic Bamboo Needles in six different styles. Single Point Needles come in white bamboo in sizes from 3.00mm to 10.00mm. Double Point Needles, also in white bamboo, available in sets of five, measure from six inches to 12 inches in length.

White bamboo 14 inch Afghan hooks and 12 inch Double End Afghan hooks are two more popular styles. White bamboo 6-inch crochet hooks are sized from 2.00 mm to 7.00 mm, with wood crochet hooks in both 15.00 and 20.00 diameters. If you prefer a grooved grip on your crochet hook, KA's "Yuraku" 5-inch crochet hook in white bamboo is a very popular model.

KA is the premiere manufacturer of circular needles, constructed of the finest white bamboo and available in five sizes: 9-inch, 16 inch, 24-inch, 32-inch and 40 inches.

KA Bamboo Knitting Needles make an excellent choice for beginning knitters because they are less expensive than wooden needles and come in a wider variety of sizes. All knitters agree, novice and veteran alike, that the warm feel of KA Needles in the hand makes them a pleasure to work with.
