Thanks hun, I think I've converted that right....4.5 mm in both 40 and 30cm lengths? Poop don't have either of those.

Do you have 4.5mm in any other length? You could use one long circ and magic loop - it's very easy.

Got my pattern, could someone help with a question please - it specifies 12 & 16 inch circulars - are they really big enough for a jumper which seems to be knitted in the round?
