Materials Needed
- Yarn: Worsted weight, 100% wool
- Knitting Needles: US 8 (5mm) knitting needles
- Gauge: 18 stitches and 24 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Cast On: Begin by casting on 40 stitches onto your US 8 (5mm) knitting needles. Ensure that your stitches are not too tight to allow for flexibility.
- Garter Stitch Border:
- Rows 1-4: Knit all stitches across the row. This will create a garter stitch border on both edges of your cuff.
- Ribbing Pattern:
- Row 5: *Knit 2 stitches, Purl 2 stitches* and repeat from * to the end of the row.
- Row 6: *Purl 2 stitches, Knit 2 stitches* and repeat from * to the end of the row.
- Continue to repeat Rows 5 and 6 for a total of 10 more rows. This will create a textured ribbed pattern in the center of your cuff.
- Stockinette Stitch:
- Row 17: Knit all stitches across the row.
- Row 18: Purl all stitches across the row.
- Repeat Rows 17 and 18 for an additional 8 rows. This will give your cuff a smooth texture.
- Final Garter Stitch Border:
- Rows 27-30: Knit all stitches across the row to create another garter stitch border.
- Bind Off: Once you have completed your rows, bind off all stitches. Make sure to do this loosely to maintain the elasticity of your cuff.
- Finishing Touch: Sew the short edges of the knitted piece together using a tapestry needle. This will form a circular cuff that you can wear on your wrist.
