NEEDLES:
DROPS CIRCULAR NEEDLE SIZE 4.5 MM = US 7: Length 40 and 60 cm = 16" and 24".
DROPS CIRCULAR NEEDLE SIZE 4 MM = US 6: Length: 40 cm = 16".
The technique MAGIC LOOP can be used- you then only need circular needle of 80 cm = 32" in each size.
KNITTING GAUGE:
18 stitches in width and 24 rows vertically in stockinette stitch on needle size 4.5 MM = US 7 = 10 x 10 cm = 4" x 4".
REMEMBER: Needle size is only a suggestion! If you have too many stitches on 10 cm = 4" switch to larger sized needles or if you get too few stitches on 10 cm = 4" switch to smaller sized needles.
