Takumi is the Japanese word for 'artisan' and the name given to the art born from combining the finest raw materials and Clover's unmatched manufacturing technology.
The finest bamboo is selected from forests that are in cold areas with only a little snow that are 4 to 5 years old. To ensure comfort for the knitter the bamboo is carefully machined to create a uniform shaft with a smooth surface that fits in your hands comfortably and allow stitches to glide easily.
Needle tips are precision designed to accommodate the finest yarns and virtually any knitting technique.
Clover began when Toshio Okada started to work for a needle wholesaler at the age of 14. His mentor gave him a book on 'moral philosophy' to read and Toshio picked a clover leaf to use as a bookmark.
In 1925, Toshio opened his own needle shop and soon after World War 2, he began manufacturing needles and sewing products. Over the years the company has grown and today, in Osaka, Japan Clover produce a range of knitting and crochet products to very high specifications built on the philosophy to "Make people around the world happy through handmade".
Implementing strict quality standards at each stage of production, Clover products are tested multiple times in a real life scenario. Manufacturing is carried out in their factory which has international recognition for having a low environmental impact as it has obtained ISO 14001 certification.
Clover also have a strong emphasis on diversity and the eradication of all types of discrimination within their workforce.
