Alert: Pointy Objects Area!

If you have some of this stuff growing in your garden, you know that it's a renewable resource. It takes little time for bamboo to take over. In fact, it tends to renew even before you've taken some out. And If you've engaged in the taking out part, you know the stuff is tough as nails. That's more than likely why it makes such good tools for knitters and crocheters. It's strong, and keeps a long-lasting, sharp point. Chiaogoo bamboo needles are top notch: double points, single point straights, circulars, crochet hooks. Great stuff. The deciding point on circular knitting needles is how the cable behaves. Remember those nasty aluminum circs everyone used to use? Nightmarish, ghoulish, unruly cables that twisted the needle tips around in the knitting. Chiaogoo cables do what you need them to do without fuss. They're supple and have a good disposition. Overall, a good knitting needle must a good point. A blunt, stubby point translates into yarn splits, sloppy stitches, and lots of cussing. The Chiaogoo tip? Sharp. Perfect for high quality, precise knitting. In fact, Chiaogoo needles are highly sought after by local lace knitters for their detail work that demands a fine, sharp, high quality point. Crochet hooks? Fabulous. The shape of the hook is such that guarantees accuracy and avoids those terrible yarn splits. Besides being a precision tool, the Chiaogoo crochet hook is light weight and comfortable to hold, reglardless whether you're a "penciler" or a "forker". Vermilion Bay Yarn has what you need in precision bamboo knitting and crochet tools. Chiagoo!
