Are you tired of your shawls, scarves and cowls falling off or not sitting the way you want them to, when you wear them?

Would you like to freshen up your knits for the new season by adding a little pop of colour to them?

The Knitted Cuff may be just what you are looking for! It is a little knitted cuff, complete with its own bobble buttons, that fits all shapes and sizes of shawls, scarves and cowls and holds them nicely in place.

No buttons, hooks, fasteners or Velcro required!

Just you, your needles and a favourite mini is all you need!

There are two sizes of The Knitted Cuff available. The thickness and shape of the shawl/scarf/cowl that you want to cuff will determine which size you should make. Most items can be cuffed using the small size. The large size suits cowls and bulky items better.

All my patterns include in-depth instructions and links to my mini 1-minute video tutorials of all the techniques and stitches used!
