DROPS DOUBLE POINTED NEEDLES SIZE 4 MM = US 6
DROPS DOUBLE POINTED NEEDLES SIZE 3 MM = US 2.5
The technique MAGIC LOOP can be used – you then only need circular needle of 80 cm = 32" in each size.
KNITTING GAUGE:
21 stitches in width and 28 rows vertically in stockinette stitch on needle size 4 MM = US 6 = 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.
