How are wooden knitting needles manufactured?
Lathe, router, power-feed shaper, or special jig? They get them perfect!
I wonder if there is a market for knitting needles made from riven domestic hardwoods such as cherry and holly?
The most popular commercial wooden knitting needles are made from birch:

Rosewood & ebony:

And bamboo:

Handcrafted wooden knitting needles are often made from dowels:
http://www.talkingcrow.com/blog/2004/10/how_to_make_knitting_needles.html
But this guy uses a lathe:
http://jenkinswoodworking.com
There's a link to a YouTube video of him turning a needle, and the "wood selection & philosophy" page says he uses walnut, quilted maple, osage orange, pink ivory, amboyna burl, beeswing narra, ebony, bolivian rosewood, canary, cocobolo, purpleheart, and brazilian cherry.
This woman uses black walnut, bloodwood, bocote, boxwood, bubinga, cocobolo, ebony, hickory/pecan, mahogany, pau amarello, satinwood, sugar maple, and tulipwood:
