ChiaoGoo knitting and crochet tools

ChiaoGoo is a highly regarded brand in the fiber arts community, specializing in premium knitting needles and crochet hooks. The brand was inspired by the craftsmanship of the Westing Bridge family, specifically the matriarch of the family, whose name 'ChiaoGoo' translates to 'crafty lady'. The family’s history in manufacturing specialized bamboo tools in China laid the foundation for the modern brand.

Today, the brand is owned and operated by Westing Bridge LLC. While the company is headquartered in the United States to manage global distribution and design, the manufacturing remains rooted in Hangzhou, China. They are best known for their stainless steel circular needles and their high-quality bamboo products, maintaining a reputation for precision engineering and artisan quality.
