If you are looking for knit-in-the-round cuffs, you will probably have a tough time finding good color matches. However, knit *ribbing* is usually available in larger fabric stores in lots of colors, and just require one seam to make a cuff.

If all else fails, try this: Buy a bunch of men's ankle socks in white. In the US, you can get a package of 6 for about $5. Cut off and serge the ankle part to keep it from unravelling - then dye to your liking. Attach to sleeve. You can double it over if you want. Works for me LOL! I've used this for warm-up scrub jackets as well as other things. SM
