The bamboo keeps its pale colour, simply polished and finished with plant wax, so the surface is smooth yet holds just enough grip to keep your stitches in place when you work with silk or mercerised cotton.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey are made by Kinki Amibari in Japan, the same workshop behind the Koshitsu range. The difference is the treatment. Koshitsu puts Moso bamboo through high pressure and heat, which makes it darker and slicker. The natural range stays warmer to the touch and more forgiving, and many knitters prefer it for exactly that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 12.5 cm length is the everyday one: sweater bodies, shawls, anything that sits on a long cord. It screws onto any Seeknit nylon cord with the same thread. M1.8 covers the fine sizes up to 3.25 mm, M2 takes over from 3.50 mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003c\/accordion-custom\u003e\u003caccordion-custom style=\"display:block\"\u003e\u003cdetails class=\"details\"\u003e\u003csummary class=\"details__header\"\u003eTechnical specifications\u003cspan class=\"svg-wrapper\" style=\"float:right\"\u003e\u003csvg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" style=\"width:16px;height:16px\"\u003e\u003cpolyline points=\"6 9 12 15 18 9\"\u003e\u003c\/polyline\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"details-content\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"nara-pd\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nara-pd__k\"\u003eMaterial\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nara-pd__v\"\u003eNatural bamboo, polished and waxed\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nara-pd__k\"\u003eTip length\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nara-pd__v\"\u003e12.5 cm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nara-pd__k\"\u003eAvailable sizes\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nara-pd__v\"\u003e3.00 mm (M1.8) · 3.50, 4.00 and 5.00 mm (M2)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nara-pd__k\"\u003eThread\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nara-pd__v\"\u003eM1.8 up to 3.25 mm · M2 from 3.50 mm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nara-pd__k\"\u003eContents\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nara-pd__v\"\u003eOne pair of tips\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nara-pd__k\"\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nara-pd__v\"\u003eSeeknit nylon cords with the same thread\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nara-pd__k\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nara-pd__v\"\u003eSeeknit by Kinki Amibari, Japan\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003c\/accordion-custom\u003e\u003caccordion-custom style=\"display:block\"\u003e\u003cdetails class=\"details\"\u003e\u003csummary class=\"details__header\"\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003cspan class=\"svg-wrapper\" style=\"float:right\"\u003e\u003csvg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" style=\"width:16px;height:16px\"\u003e\u003cpolyline points=\"6 9 12 15 18 9\"\u003e\u003c\/polyline\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"details-content\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"nara-faq\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is this different from Koshitsu? \u003c\/strong\u003eKoshitsu is Moso bamboo treated under pressure and heat: darker, harder and slicker. Natural bamboo is paler and has slightly more grip, which helps with slippery yarns. Both use the same cords, so you can mix them freely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich cord do I need? \u003c\/strong\u003eAny Seeknit nylon cord with the same thread as the tip. The circumference you get is the cord length plus roughly 25 cm for the pair of tips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I combine M1.8 and M2? \u003c\/strong\u003eYes, with the Seeknit M2 to M1.8 converter.
