NEEDLES:

DROPS DOUBLE POINTED NEEDLES SIZE 5 MM = US 8.
DROPS DOUBLE POINTED NEEDLES SIZE 3.5 MM = US 4.
DROPS CABLE NEEDLE
The technique MAGIC LOOP can be used – you then only need 80 cm = 32” circular needle in each size.
KNITTING GAUGE:
16 stitches in width and 20 rows in height with stockinette stitch and 1 strand of each quality = 10 x 10 cm = 4” x 4”.
NOTE: Needle size is only a guide. If you get too many stitches on 10 cm = 4”, change to a larger needle size. If you get too few stitches on 10 cm = 4”, change to a smaller needle size.
