NEEDLES:
DROPS CIRCULAR NEEDLE SIZE 3.5 MM = US 4: Length 40 cm = 16" and 60 cm = 24".
DROPS CIRCULAR NEEDLE SIZE 3 MM = US 2.5: Length 40 cm = 16".
The technique MAGIC LOOP can be used – you then only need 80 cm = 32" circular needle in each size.
KNITTING GAUGE:
22 stitches in width and 30 rows in height with stockinette stitch on needle size 3.5 MM = US 4 = 10 x 10 cm = 4" x 4".
NOTE: Remember, the 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 to few stitches on 10 cm = 4", change to a smaller needle size.
