Wool Cuffs with Garter Stitch (Free Pattern)
This free knitting pattern for cuffs calls for Lion Brand "Wool-Ease Thick & Quick" yarn. SKILL LEVEL: Beginner SIZE: One Size About 6-1/2 in. (16.5 cm) circumference. Cuff will stretch to fit a range of sizes. GAUGE: About 9 stitches = 4 in. (10 cm) in Garter stitch (knit every row). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Step 1

CUFF (make 2) Cast on 15 stitches. Work in Garter stitch (knit every stitch on every row) until piece measures about 8-1/2 in. (22 cm) from beginning. Bind off, leaving a long yarn tail.

Step 2

FINISHING Fold knit piece in half. Thread yarn tail into blunt needle. Sew sides of Cuff together for about 2 in. (5 cm). Leave next 1 in. (2.5 cm) unsewn for thumb opening, then seam remainder of sides. Weave yarn ends into inside (wrong side) of Cuff.
