NEEDLE GUIDE
What needles do you need to knit Sloane Tote Bag and where do you use them?

3.5 mm US 4 80 cm 32 inches: Is used for the entire bag; bottom, sides, straps and i-cord. The bottom uses the Magic Loop method to cast on with Judy’s Magic Cast on. If this is difficult, you can use another 3.5 mm needle instead.

The pattern often uses stitch wires to rest stitches on. If you don’t have these, you can use a piece of scarp yarn or another needle.
