Add small buttons close to the pleat to keep out the cold, or unbutton them to exaggerate the flare of the cuff. Ribbing with twisted knit stitches keeps the gauntlet firm and merges into cables at the wrist. The hand, in fingering yarn, is smooth stockinette with tapered fingers and thumbs. Enjoy the three "tuck" lines that adorn the back of the hand.
