Window Cuff

**Introduction** A lovely pattern to introduce you to the art of knitting with wire. The wire section is small enough for you to get a feel of working with wire and to learn how to incorporate beads into the wire. Hand dyed yarn is then added to the finished wire piece to create a comfortable and flexible knitted cuff. The pattern involves measuring the piece around your wrist as you knit, making it perfectly customisable to your wrist size. It’s the perfect project for spare mini-skeins that you may have in your stash. They make great gifts too! **Materials & Equipment needed:** Preciosa crystal beads x 33 [12 x Dark, 12 x Medium, 9 x Light] 0.3mm/28-gauge coloured copper jewellery wire reel 20g hand dyed fingering/4 ply yarn 2.75mm knitting needles Sewing needle with eye large enough for wire Reel holder for wire (optional) Wire cutter **Crystals** I use 4mm bicone crystal beads on all my patterns.
