DROPS CABLE NEEDLE.
The technique MAGIC LOOP can be used – you then only need 80 cm = 32" circular needle in each size.
KNITTING GAUGE:
13 stitches in width and 15 rows in height, with stockinette stitch and 1 strand of each quality on needle size 7 MM = US 10.75 = 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.
