The technique MAGIC LOOP can be used – you then only need circular needle of 80 cm in each size.

KNITTING TENSION:
15 stitches in width and 19 rows vertically in stocking stitch and 1 strand of each quality needle size 5.5 mm = 10 x 10 cm.
17 stitches in width and 22 rows vertically in stocking stitch and 1 strand of each quality needle size 4.5 mm = 10 x 10 cm.
REMEMBER: Needle size is only a suggestion. If you have too many stitches on 10 cm switch to larger sized needles or if you get too few stitches on 10 cm switch to smaller sized needles.
