Pattern Notes

This project is made with a yarn that contains elastic, which allows the finished project to stretch. Use of yarn without elastic may require alterations.

Do not cut off color changes while making cuff until instructed otherwise. Carry yarn along the sides of work.

Use care not to pull tightly at the color change as this will cause buckling and the stretchiness will be diminished.

Join with slip stitch as indicated unless otherwise stated.
