This pattern is inspired by some cuffs I saw in a shop window a while ago. I named it after a figure out of the German literature, Till Eulenspiegel. These cuffs look like something he might have worn. Till was a funny guy who, back in medieval times, loved to play pranks on his contemporaries. In this way he exposed human weaknesses and even turned situations around to his own advantage using nothing but his wit. So these cuffs might speak to your playful side. Have fun being a little silly! I used a sport weight super mohair yarn.
