DROPS CIRCULAR NEEDLE SIZE 7 MM = US 10.75: Length 40 cm = 16" and 80 cm = 32".
DROPS DOUBLE POINTED NEEDLES SIZE 8 MM = US 11.

DROPS CABLE NEEDLE.
The technique MAGIC LOOP can be used – you then only need 80 cm = 32" circular needle in each size.
KNITTING GAUGE:
11 stitches in width and 15 rows in height, with stockinette stitch and 1 strand of each quality on needle size 8 MM = US 11 = 10 x 10 cm = 4" x 4".
12 stitches in width and 16 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.
