GAUGE: 14 sc + 16 rows = 4 in. (10 cm). 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.

For each fringe, hold 3 strands together (1 strand of each color) and fold in half. From RS, insert hook in any st of last rnd of Cuff, place fold on hook and draw through, forming a loop. Draw ends of strands through this loop. Pull to tighten. Rep to attach fringe to each st in last rnd of Cuff. Add two more rnds, inserting hook around the post of each st, onto the outer side of Cuff. Space the fringe rnds about 3 rnds apart. Trim to desired length.
