  Step 1

  To get the size right, cut a strip of paper, in the width that you would like your cuff and fold it around your wrist, cutting to the right length.

• 

  Step 2

  Using the template as a guide, cut a piece of black fabric, measuring double the height of the template, with an inch allowance at either side.

• 

  Step 3

  Fold the fabric in half, height ways, and pin along the top edge and bottom edges, so that you get a nice neat rectangle.

• 

  Step 4

  Sew along the open edge, removing the pins as you go.

• 

  Step 5

  Remove the pins from the other edge and fold inside out. Place a row of pins about 1/2 cm in from both edges.

• 

  Step 6

  Sew along both sides, removing the pins as you go.

• 

  Step 7

  Cut a strip of tartan, measuring half the height of the template, and two strips of lace to the same length as the cuff.

• 

  Step 8

  Pin the tartan down the middle of the cuff and the lace to either edge.

• 

  Step 9

  Sew along either edge of the tartan with a zigzag stitch, this will help the fabric not to fray too much, but still enough to look cool.

• 

  Step 10

  Hammer in two parts of a popper button to either side of the cuff, making sure that the placement is perfect for the cuff to fit nicely. Neatly stitch up the two open edges.

• 

  Step 11

  Embellish however you like - you could glue star studs along the cuff, or stitch on buttons and beads.

• 

  Step 12

  All done, wear with pride!
