Cuffs are surprisingly warm and practical. We like them knitted up in this classic—and simple—two-color pattern, evocative of tweedy warmth. Make a pair to peek from under your coat sleeves, grab your wellies and go for a walk! Or, choose the fingerless glove option and wear them into winter. So cozy!
