Troubleshooting
Cuff ribbing is too loose.
Ensure you have the correct length and that the ribbing is stretched slightly during sewing.
Seams are coming undone.
Use a stretch stitch or zig-zag stitch for added durability. Reinforce seams with additional stitching.
Ribbing doesn't match the garment color.
Consider pre-washing the ribbing to see if the color changes slightly, or consider a different cuff color.
