Find the yarn at Queen City Yarn!

SIDE HUSTLE CUFFS use squishy garter stitch and short row shaping to create a unique cuff shape that gives your hands a little hug! Knit in 2 or more colors, these cuffs can be worked in DK weight yarn or fingering weight yarn held double to achieve gauge. These cozy warmers can be tucked into the sleeve of a long-sleeved shirt for just a bit of extra warmth.
