I will donthis for a jacket of my husband. I am so happy i finally found this tutorial so well explained! Be blessed!
Thank you Maria! Pleased I could help! ❤️
Thank you so much for the tip to open the stitches up!! I know they need to be looser but I haven’t seen that trick before, it’s perfect
So pleased it helped Erin - thanks for letting me know 🌟
Thank you for all those handy little pieces of advice 🥰
You’re so welcome Kym!
This is just what I was looking for , I’m working a pattern that is working from cuff to cuff shrug and I wanted stretch not front post dc. This will look neat and cleaner. Thank you for sharing! God bless
I’m so pleased it’s useful for you! Hope your shrug turns out beautifully 😊

New subbie here! I love the sweater this cuff is being sewn onto! Do you have a tutorial for this top? TFS Hugs!
Nice! Thank you for sharing! 💙
you're welcome and thank you for the nice comment 🙂
Hey! Really appreciate this tutorial 😊. However, I have a question. Do you skip a stitch when you slip stitch?
Hi, thanks for your message. No, as per instructions "ch1, do not sk any sts, sl st into the back loop of each st"
Thank you that's very nice. I have a question you may have covered it and I missed it. How many rows should be in the cuff compared to the garment it's being attached to? For instance if I'm attaching it to a pant leg on a pair of newborn pants with 31 stitches how many rows should be in the cuff?
Hi! For this particular tutorial the size of the cuff is made custom to fit the wrist rather than the size being related to the width of the sleeve. Also the number of rows would be different depending on the hook size, yarn and your personal gauge. So in the case of cuffs for pants, it would be based on the circumference of the baby’s ankles either by testing the length of the strip of ribbing on the baby for size as you’re making it, or by working out how many rows of ribbing you have per cm and obtaining the measurement of the baby’s ankle.
You are so cooll !!!
Haha! Thank you 😀
Do you think it would be easy to extend one of these cuffs already attached
Hi, unfortunately no - because they are crocheted perpendicular to the sleeves. The length of these cuffs is determined by how many chains you start with, not how many rows you crochet.
Hi do you have a tutorial for the sweater? Thanks 😊
I tried to find the tutorial for making the whole sweater but only found your in person classes. Do you offer an online version of making this sweater?
Very helpful video. I have one question: Does the cuff still stretch where it's sewn with the whip stitch? I want to be able to push the cuff up from my wrist to my elbow and i want to make sure it will still stretch
so pleased you found it useful! I have checked my sweater and there is a good amount of stretch at the whip stitch seam. I did make sure not to stitch too tightly
@@MezzaCraft thank you so much! I will definitely be making this
You mightve said this in the video but does the cuff and sleeves opening have to be the same width?
My sleeves are quite wide and my cuffs are small
I want to know if this would effect the way i have to attach it
Yes, it is mentioned in the video. I narrow the sleeve first with a row of single crochet & decreases, and then gather it until it's the same width as the cuff before attaching.
@@MezzaCraft Sorry for missing this in the video but thanks for telling me!
@@aynat3068 no problem, it is quite a long video!!😅
I’m in love with your sweater! Do you have a pattern?
I only have notes for one size - if you email me I can send you what I have
@@MezzaCraft I’d love to but I don’t see a way to email you though. Do you have an email address you could share?
@@RebelWildflower hi! I don’t want to put it in here because of spam but you can fill in the contact form on my website: www.mezzacraft.com
@MezzaCraft I'm a new subscriber. I just found you by chance today and excited about all your tutorials I've seen on your channel, this one especially! I would also like to have this sweater pattern emailed to me. If I follow your link to your webpage how will I be able to contact you for this sweater?
wonder how many numbered numbers you use?
Hi! Not sure what you’re asking me?
Can this also be nade with a d c stitch?😊
dc UK terminology or dc US? It wouldn't work with US dc as the stitch is much too long. You can do it with a uk dc (us sc) but it won't look exactly the same and it won't have the stretch.
how do i know how big to make the cuff ?
By big do you mean the width around the wrist or length of the cuff? Either way, these are entirely up to you and depend on your size of wrist, how wide you want the cuff and what thickness of yarn and hook size you are using. The size around your wrist is the easiest one to work out - you just keep working the rib until it fits around your wrist. If you want it to "grip" your wrist slightly, make it about 1cm shorter than the circumference of your wrist. If you're making it for someone else that's a different size to you, you will need to check average wrist sizes for your country (I have previously worked in the jewellery industry so I know this varies quite a bit from one country to the next). Depth of cuff is something you will need to experiment with. Obviously, the longer your starting chain, the longer the cuff. The cuff in this video is 22 sts in DK with a 4mm hook. I would consider this to be quite a wide cuff.
What hook size are you using please x
Hi! I’m using a 4mm hook with DK yarn… for the starting chain I’d use a 3.5mm
Where is the sweater tutorial pls?
Hi, this sweater design was part of a course I taught at my local arts centre… so there is no specific tutorial for this particular sweater as the course was to teach how to make a sweater out of granny squares. I do have some notes for this one. If you’d like the notes please contact me via my website. Many thanks 🙏🏻
