Notes

Notes

  • made a few changes on this pair for a closer fit for myself
  • Alternate cable cast on with #5’s and work up to section 3 with smaller needles
  • Section 3: change to #6 and continue
  • Add 1 row to sections 5/7/9 to account for length due to smaller needles in sections 1/2/bind off
  • After working 6 rows of 2x2 ribbing in section 10 with #6’s, change to #5’s work 1r 1x1 ribbing, 2 rows tubular bind off set up and bind off
  • These changes made the cuffs slightly tighter and allowed a closer fit to my arms/fingers
  • Cable is in ribbing which makes it stretchy but still close fitting
