NEEDLES:
DROPS CIRCULAR NEEDLES SIZE 6 MM = US 10: Length 40 cm = 16” and 80 cm = 32”.
DROPS CIRCULAR NEEDLES SIZE 5 MM = US 8: Length 40 cm = 16” and 80 cm = 32”.
DROPS DOUBLE POINTED NEEDLES SIZE 6 MM = US 10.
DROPS DOUBLE POINTED NEEDLES SIZE 5 MM = US 8.
The technique MAGIC LOOP can be used – you then only need 80 cm = 32” circular needle in each size.
KNITTING GAUGE:
14 stitches in width and 16 rows in height with stockinette stitch and 1 strand of each quality = 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.
