Checkerboard Cuffs

Lion Brand® Vanna's Glamour®

GAUGE:

21 sts + 15 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in pattern. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

NOTES:

1. To change color, work last st of old color to last yarn over. Yarn over with new color and draw through all loops on hook to complete st. Fasten off old color.
2. Cuffs can be worked from written instructions or from chart.

Checkerboard Cuffs Reviewed by Ruth McConghy on 2011-04-06 *****
I would like try this pattern
for baby afghan. You can get
a multicolor yarn for this
baby afghan.

Try this pattern and see how it
works out.
