Cocktail Hour

Elevate your knitting projects with our charming Simple Ribbing Cuffs pattern, designed specifically to add a delicate, lacy touch to your wardrobe. These stunning double-layered flounce cuffs not only provide elegant flair to any cute little black dress but also ensure you stay cozy on those chilly nights or within air-conditioned spaces. Embrace the versatility and style these cuffs offer as a beautiful accessory!

Construction Notes
The cuffs are expertly knitted, beginning with a delightful simple ribbing technique. Following this, eyelets are introduced, allowing for a lovely lace repeat that incorporates necessary increases built directly into the flounce chart. After completing the first layer, you will pick up stitches around the cuff's interior to create a second flounce in a coordinating color, making these cuffs truly one-of-a-kind.

Notions
To get started on this project, you will need US 3/3.25 mm double-pointed needles (dpns) or the size that helps you achieve the desired gauge. Additionally, a tapestry needle will be essential for weaving in your ends. For those working the larger size, an optional spare 6th dpn in the same size will be helpful for managing a repeat on each needle.

Skills Required
This knitting pattern is suitable for crafters familiar with basic stitches including knit and purl, as well as those comfortable with working on DPNs. You'll also learn techniques like yarn overs (yo), knit two together (k2tog), slip slip knit (ssk), and single knit 2 together (sk2p) as described in the pattern. Familiarity with reading charts will enhance your knitting experience and precision.
