Cabbage Rose Knitted Cuff

I bought a Cabbage Rose Knitted Cuff Kit from the Crescendoh Shop.
I can't remember the last time I picked up a pair of knitting needles.
It was fun to make this cuff.


It is made of hemp yarn and vintage ribbon 


I loved making the little cabbage rose to put on top


Now that it is finished I can keep it in the little bag that comes with the kit


2 little buttons


and 2 little loops hold it together


I love the texture of the hemp and ribbon cuff
