The technique MAGIC LOOP can be used – you then only need 80 cm circular needle in each size.
KNITTING TENSION:
20 stitches in width and 27 rows in height with stocking stitch and 1 strand of each quality on needle size 3.5 mm = 10 x 10 cm.
26 stitches in width and 27 rows in height with A.1/A.2 and 1 strand of each quality on needle size 3.5 mm = 10 x 10 cm.
3 repeats of A.1/A.2 (24 stitches) = approx. 9 cm in width.
REMEMBER: The needle size is only a guide. If you get too many stitches on 10 cm, change to a larger needle size. If you get too few stitches on 10 cm, change to a smaller needle size.
