NEEDLES:
DROPS CIRCULAR NEEDLE SIZE 5 MM = US 8: Length 40 cm = 16" and 60-60-60-60-80-80-80 cm = 24"-24"-24"-24"-32"-32"-32".

DROPS DOUBLE POINTED NEEDLES SIZE 5 MM = US 8
DROPS DOUBLE POINTED NEEDLES SIZE 3.5 MM = US 4
The technique MAGIC LOOP can be used – you then only need circular needle of 80 cm = 32" in each size.
KNITTING GAUGE:
17 stitches in width and 22 rows vertically in stockinette stitch on needle size 5 MM = US 8 = 10 x 10 cm = 4" x 4".
NOTE! Remember that needle size is only a suggestion. If you have too many stitches on 10 cm = 4" switch to larger needles. If you have too few stitches on 10 cm = 4" switch to smaller needles.
