Hey Hook Nookers, I’m Baaaaaaaaack!
...AND, you guessed it! I’m here with another “one-skein-wonder” using the fabulous We Are Knitters “The WOOL”!
These trendy boot cuffs literally took me less than 10 minutes each! I love a project that adds an eye-catching flare to your wardrobe but is super easy to work up.
Simple patterns, eye-catching designs…That’s my motto!!!!
Hook some of these as gifts, market items, or for your own personal wardrobe this fall. I know you will love ‘em!!!
Materials:
- N/P (10 mm) crochet hook
- 1 Skein (87 yards) We Are Knitters The Wool
- Yarn needle
- Measuring Tape
Key:
ch: chain
dc: double crochet
hdc: half double crochet
sl st: slip stitch
st(s): stitch(es)
(#): Stitch counts at end of row
Skill level: Easy
Size: Adult. Approx. 6 in tall and 5 in wide (lying flat).
Gauge: 4-inch by 4-inch swatch is 7 sts x 6 rows of hdc
Notes:
Chain at beginning of each row does not count as a st.
Use a stitch marker at the beginning of each row to ensure you join each row in the correct stitch.
Boot cuffs tend to stretch with use. Though these may feel tight at first, wearing them will help them stretch to the size of your calf.
