Product Details
Wondering what to do with your bits and pieces of yarn? Have a few mini skeins that need a project? A braided bracelet cuff is the answer! Whether you use those mini skeins or just throw some yarn in a pile, this stash busting recipe makes bracelets customized to fit your wrist. It is intended as an average fit with a small amount of ease on your wrist.
Size note: Each of the three bands in the cuff is 1” (2.5 cm) wide. Braiding the bands narrows the overall cuff width to 2.5” (6.5 cm) wide. The button bands overlap, reducing the finished circumference by 1/2”/1.25 cm from the desired length.
Yarn: 30-50 yards/27-46 meters of a fingering weight yarn that knits up to 7-7.5 sts/inch. Roughly 8 to 14 grams of yarn.
The yarn for each band weighs between 2.0 grams and 4.5 grams, depending on the size knit. You will need a little extra for the button bands at the ends (approx. 1.5 grams).
To use up bits of yarn, use the Russian Join method for joining the yarn prior to knitting the bands.
