Knitting Needles
There are many needles on the market to
choose from. Our needles are distinguished by
the care we take of the wood, never adding
plastic resins or formaldehyde to densify
or laminate the wood. Handmade by skilled
craftsmen and women from carefully selected
hardwoods, these heirloom quality tools involve
several stages of sanding, honing and polishing to
assure the smoothest possible ﬁnish.
We are proud to say that our wooden needles are
unmatched in quality. The warmth and lightweight
nature of natural wood and our silky smooth ﬁnish
make them uniquely special to own.
Single Point Needles
(shown above)
Handcrafted using our famous
“liquid silk” ﬁnishing process.
Available in Ebony, Rosewood or
Featherlight Slate. Note: Natural
variations in wood color on all

The Story of Lantern Moon Destiny Needles
Every life has a story. The special family who
makes Lantern Moon knitting needles believes
in the power of destiny. This is the story of
how their lives became intertwined with yours.
In Vietnam, if you have lived long enough, your life
has two stories. Your ﬁrst story ends in 1975, and your
second story begins thereafter. 1975 was the year when
the long struggle of the Vietnam conﬂict ended, yet
new hardships lay ahead for its people. They suffered
from continued wars, ﬂoods, food shortages, reeducation camps or prison.
After the war, Thuan‘s family struggled
just to survive. Losing hope that
conditions would improve in Vietnam,
they - like many of their countrymen
- set about making plans to leave and
begin life anew in another country.
(Referred to in the West as Boat People,
these Vietnamese citizens soon began
to arrive all over the world. By the early
1980’s, millions had immigrated to other
countries.)
Huyet spent two years in jail after their capture, but
prison didn’t keep the brothers from scheming and
dreaming about future attempts to escape Vietnam .
Twice more the brothers tried but failed to escape by
boat, each time losing all they had to pirates or police,
and each time serving prison sentences to receive more
“re-education.” Although splitting up the family would
increase their chance for success, there would be no
guarantee they would be reunited. Either they would
escape together, or not at all. The brothers believed the
most important goal was to remain an intact family.
After the last failed attempt, Thuan sat in prison
imagining my friend and his oldest son Quang, who was
only eight years old at the time, wandering
the streets looking for food while his
wife took care of the baby. It was at this
moment that Thuan realized it was his
destiny to stay in Vietnam.
As Thuan reﬂects back on that time he
recalls, “Each time we tried to leave we
had less and less for the pirates and
the police to steal, but things were also
getting a little better in the country, so I
thought there must be something we are
supposed to be doing here.”
After much searching, Thuan and his
brother Huyet found a boat on which
they would attempt their escape. The
family took off into the night waters of
the Mekong Delta where a boat awaited
them, ﬁlled with other desperate families
willing to risk everything for a new life.
And, according to Thuan, that something
turned out to be the needle factory.
“After 1975 it seems like I spent
all my waking hours trying to
keep the family together and
get out of the country so that I
could take care of them, but for
some reason it never worked. I
never understood why, until the
opportunity to make the needles
came along. Now it is what we
do. It is why we are here. It is
how we stay together. It is how I
take care of my family and it was
our destiny.”
Their goal was to make it past the
pirates and the police and into
international waters in their leaky
overloaded boat. Once there, the plan
was to disable the motor and wait for a
passing freighter, with the hope it would
see their tiny craft before ramming into
it. If they were lucky, they might be
picked up and taken to a refugee camp,
and then resettled in a new country
which they would call home.
They set out, and believing they had
reached international waters, one of the
men stood on the deck and screamed,
“We have made it out of Vietnam!”
Soon after, one of the boat’s two
engines sputtered and died. Unable to
see well enough to repair the engine,
they decided to attempt sleep and deal
with the problem in the morning.
Is it important to know who makes your
needles and to know that they believe in
destiny? We think so. Uncle Huyet asked
me, “I spent two years in prison trying to
gain my freedom. If my attempts to get
out of Vietnam had been successful, who
would make Lantern Moon needles?”
Now that destiny has been passed
on for the next generation. This
small family workshop is now being
run by the oldest son, Phong. We
are proud and pleased that this
handcrafted tool maker has been
able to pass on a sustainable and
strong business to his family.
They awoke to the sound of boats
approaching them … pirates, police, or
navy; they weren’t certain. They ﬁred
up the boat’s one engine and tried to
outrun them, but they were far too
slow. The navy was catching up, guns
blazing and bullets ﬂying. Uncle Huyet
was at the helm, and everyone else
was on the ﬂoor praying for their lives.
Finally, Thuan took off his white shirt
and waved it in surrender.

The Story of Tulip Brand
The tradition of needle-making in Hiroshima stretches
back for more than 300 years. Tulip brand is based in
this Hiroshima region and produces sewing needles,
crochet hooks and knitting needles for handcrafts.
Atsushi Harada, the founder, hoped to create a
popular brand that would be a favorite among all
users, by developing a high quality product that is
both reliable and easy to use.
The current and second president, Kotaro Harada
continues the legacy of his father. He is committed
to providing service and conducting business with
integrity by delivering premium quality products that
will contribute to society, targeting customers who
“use Tulip products to enjoy their life every day.” Tulip
staff “want to please our customers because they are
fond of Hiroshima and Tulip,” and they help promote
the idea of “leading a fulﬁlling life that starts from
using needles.”
“Even as we plan
for and anticipate
the future, we will
continue to build
our expertise
in technology
while preserving
our traditional
techniques, in order
to stay committed
to being a company
that is both reliable and a favorite among our
customers.”
We ﬁnd these needles and hooks to be superior quality to any
bamboo on the market. - Joel Woodcock

Our Philosophy
Lantern Moon’s business plan actively supports
the United Nations Millennium Development
Goals, which range from halving extreme

UN is working with governments, civil society
and other partners to build on the momentum
generated by these goals and carry on with an
ambitious post-2015 development agenda.

ahead, visit the UN’s website at:
