Hello,
I am looking to buy some circular needles for a skirt I would like to knit. The pattern is saying that 4mm circular needles are needed that are 36 inches (90cm) in length. However when I have tried to look for this length online, I can only find 80cm (about 31 inches) or 100cm (about 39 inches) as the closest measurement. It is probable that this length is not available in the UK.
I am knitting the skirt in the small size which is 34-36 inches so I am wondering whether it would be better to knit with the 80cm circular needles or the 100cm circular needles instead of the 90cm ones.
This will be my first time knitting with circular needles so I am unsure of how the length affects the circumference.
Thank you!
