“What better way to ward off the chill of winter than with a pair of knitted cuffs?” asks Matthews. “These cuffs feature a beaded motif inspired by ice crystals. A quick knit, they can be easily modified in length and circumference to fit a variety of wrist sizes.” Knitted widthwise in garter stitch (you can see the grain of the ridges), this is a splendid design just right for the season, and beautiful to wear or give. Matthews writes an extremely clear pattern, and you get both written-out and charted instructions. If you use the provisional cast on and a three-needle bind-off, there’s no sewing at all. Gauge given is over garter stitch.

Sizing information:
Length: 3.5 inches / 9 cm; Circumference: 6.5 inches / 16.5 cm (unstretched)

Circumference can be adjusted to fit a larger or smaller wrist, you will need to add or eliminate an even number of rows on either side of the chart motif. Note that you may need additional yarn if adding rows.
