Manufacturing Process: Blending Tradition and Technology
KnitPro knitting needles and crochet hook lines seamlessly blend traditional craftsmanship and modern, cutting-edge technologies.
Selection of Raw Materials
KnitPro's manufacturing journey starts with the careful selection of high-quality raw materials. They choose seasoned birch wood, known for its strength and smooth texture and sustainable Japanese bamboo. This combination ensures that every product is high in quality and environmentally responsible.
Crafting the Components
The birch wood undergoes a detailed process of shaping, ensuring each piece is perfectly formed for knitting. The stainless steel, on the other hand, is precisely cut, then goes through a rigorous process of tempering and polishing. This meticulous attention to detail guarantees both the strength and the sleek finish of the needles and hooks.
Hand Assembly
In this phase, skilled artisans manually assemble the needles. This includes perfecting either sharp or rounded needle points, assembling cords and screws, and applying the final polish. Manual assembly ensures a high degree of craftsmanship and attention to detail in each piece.
Quality Inspection
The final stage in KnitPro's manufacturing process is a comprehensive quality inspection. Each needle and hook is scrutinized to ensure it meets the company's stringent standards for quality and performance. This thorough inspection guarantees that the crafters receive only the best tools, capable of enhancing their knitting or crocheting experience.
