Knitting Needles hand-turned and -carved from Osage Orange Wood

What do you use to knit up that spun gold?

bodark-sz-10-5 Well, not real gold. That would be kinda pricey and heavy. How about Osage Orange, also called Hedge, Bodark or Bois d’Arc. This is a very hard, rot resistant wood with a gorgeous golden color when first turned. As it ages, it gets darker, but not evenly. The resulting color is like dark chocolate with ribbons or caramel… wait… must be hungry.

These particular knitting needles are size 10.5 and approximately 11-inches in length including the finial at the top. They are polished and finished and buffed using oils and beeswax until they have a soft, shiny finish that shines like glass.

Take a look… or better yet, add ‘em to your collection.

Like these, but you don’t use size 10.5? Drop me a line… I can make a set in the size you want.
