But maybe you would rather have a cuff of alternating two right and two purl stitches? No problem! In this case, you simply "sort" the stitches over after the cast-on and knit normally in your cuff. After a few rows, you won't see any transition and the 2×2 cuff will be perfect, with a nice cast-on edge. Look:
