Double Knitted Cuffs
These cuffs are prettiest in single German wool; two colours are required,—say claret and white. They will take sixteen skeins of white wool and eight of claret—No. 13 needles.
Cast on forty-six stitches in claret,—pearl four rows. Pearl one row white; in the next—bring the wool forward, knit two together:—repeat these two rows of white, twice,—making altogether six rows. The four rows of claret in pearl knitting, and the six rows of white, are now to be repeated, alternately, until six stripes of each are worked. Then,—
Pick up seventy stitches in claret, on the right side, at one of the narrow ends, and pearl one row. Repeat the six rows of white,—finishing with the four rows of claret, and cast off.
Repeat the same at the other end of the cuff,—observing that the knitting of the frill is to be on the wrong side.
Sew up the cuffs, and double them, so as to allow the frill, at the one end, to appear above that at the other.
