NEEDLES:
DROPS CIRCULAR NEEDLE SIZE 3 MM = US 2.5: Length 40 and 80 cm = 16" and 32".
The technique MAGIC LOOP can be used- you then only need circular needle of 80 cm = 32".
KNITTING GAUGE:
26 stitches in width and 34 rows vertically in stockinette stitch on needle size 3 MM = US 2.5 = 10 x 10 cm = 4" x 4".
REMEMBER: Needle size is only a suggestion! If you have too many stitches on 10 cm = 4" switch to larger sized needles or if you get too few stitches on 10 cm = 4" switch to smaller sized needles.
