What is it? – Hats, socks, sweaters, sleeves, mittens, bags and so much more. All things knitted, great or small, flat or in the round. How can we do all of these projects? Besides some killer yarn and a crystal-clear creative vision, we’ll need a great set of knitting needles. Case in point the Takumi Interchangeable Circular Assortment. Few knitting tool sets are more useful than a quality interchangeable circular knitting needle assortment. At home or on the road, it’s like having a knitting shop in a case. To make the Takumi assortment even more accessible, the component pieces are also available individually along with the associated accessories. Takumi Bamboo Circular Knitting Needles are legendary for their warm, organic feel with just the right amount of flex to them to make them comfortable. Uniquely designed points make them perfect for any size yarn or knitting application. Attaching cords are incredibly soft and flexible allowing our project to lie flat as we work. Clover has long prided itself in the production of Takumi premium bamboo knitting needles. Only the finest raw materials have ever been used and manufacturing has always been accomplished to the absolute highest, most exacting standards. When other knitting needles have failed and faded from memory, Takumi Bamboo Circular Knitting Needles will still be a valued part of your creative knitting experience.
What does it do? – This is the ultimate knitting tool box. Acquire the complete set or add component pieces as you need them and create the custom assortment that is perfect for everything you do.
Takumi Bamboo Interchangeable Knitting Needle Points – Nothing feels or performs like bamboo. The interchangeable points are available in twelve sizes to meet the needs of virtually any application. Sizes available are 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,10.5,11,13,15.
Takumi Interchangeable Cord – These cords are designed to be soft and flexible, enabling your projects to lie flat as you knit. They are available in five sizes. The lengths available are 16, 24, 29, 36 and 48 inches.
Takumi Interchangeable Cord Connector – Interchangeable connectors allow a whole new dimension in flexibility. For larger or uniquely sized projects two or more cords can be joined together to make a single longer cord. The connections are smooth and seamless so there are no hang-ups with even the finest, most delicate yarns.
Takumi Interchangeable Stoppers – Interchangeable stoppers simply screw into the ends of the cords when the needle tips are removed. They are large enough to prevent stitches from sliding from the ends of the cord but small enough to tuck away neatly into your kit. Bamboo Knitting Repair Hooks – Bamboo repair hooks are an essential to any knitting kit. The Takumi Knitting Repair Hooks come in two sizes, each with a pointed end and a crochet hook style end. The hooks allow you to manipulate your yarn to effectively repair a dropped stitch from even five or six rows down without having to pull out all of those stitches and start over.
Interchangeable Circular Knitting Needle Case – With all of these wonderful components the only challenge is keeping them all together. Problem solved. This attractive case organizes the components as you acquire them for easy access when you need them. It’s spacious enough to accommodate the entire set if you so desire.

Set out some yarn and needles and let them experiment. There really isn’t anything to compare. And the ease of acquiring the components on an “as needed basis” makes the pay as you go investment a welcome find.
