I'm a bit confused about the cuff styled bracelet part....does it just mean a bit wider bracelet? or as wide as a cuff?

wolfeagle 02/21/2011 #

In general, cuffs are wide. Though I have seen some thinner ones also. There are typically no clasp closers, like a tradiional bracelet but instead a way for the wrist to slide in to it. Not a very formal definition but I hope that helps.

Thanks so much that helps me a lot! If there is no clasp, could there be some kind of elastic band inside or a button to get it on? or just leave that all and make it to slide on?

Sure.

I'm in. I might end up making more than 1. I found quite a few I HAVE to have :)

My wrist is 6 inches, but please make it 6.5 inches for the comfort.

My wrists are 7", but in order to slide on a closed cuff, I need 8.5". If the cuff has a fastener, 7' or 7.25" would be great.

I wanted to post pics on the 'gallery slideshow' but that link doesn't seem to work for me. I did write on my blog about the cuff I made, so it is there if anyone wants to see it. OR if anyone has any advice about the slideshow, please let me know. (The link brings up an advertisement, but no slideshow and no entry box.) Thanks.
