With a straight stitch, sew around the cuff 1/4 inch from the edge. For ease, I sew on the 'right' side of the fabric.

This cube cuff was inspired by my 80's childhood. I invite you to walk down memory lane with me. In a time where gas was 99 cents a gallon, Cabbage Patch dolls were all the rage, neons were the ultimate and everyone used a bottle of Aqua Net hairspray a week to keep up their bangs. Hairspray measures
6 3/4" x 1" and brings out the 80's in all of us!!

In 2004! For anyone that doesn't know, it's in Stitch 'n Bitch Nation. I wanted to learn to use my DPN's tonight and this pattern happened to use the size called for in the pattern...and I *happened* to have the same shade of Kureyon in my stash.
The start of something really pretty. Clematis by Through the Loops. The yarn is Shibui in Ivory and Periwinkle.

In the 1800s, native peoples began to use European fabrics to fashion fine formal garments; they favored sturdy cloth, such as velvet and wool broadcloth, which provided support for heavy decorative beadwork that was added by hand. Often the fabric was a dark color, providing dramatic contrast for the multicolored beads. Rather than encrusting the entire garment, beadwork was confined to cuffs, “epaulettes,” bib-like plackets and yokes, rectangular panels sewn to leggings, shirts, and dresses, and the like.
