Any guesses on what I did this weekend? Yep, I wore boot cuffs for the first time this year. ♥ While there are oodles of free crochet patterns for boot cuffs available online, I wanted some that were reversible. Plus I just like creating new patterns and I love this stitch combo.
These boot cuffs are created short/bottom side first. Meaning that we will crochet a strip until it reaches the size of our calf circumference. When we get to the correct length, we sew the short ends together to create a circle, then we go around the top and continue UP until we reach the desired height. Very customizable and great for beginners too!
Isn’t that stitch repeat pattern lovely?
Reversible Boot Cuffs
Materials:
Any worsted weight yarn
Size hook indicated on label (I used H)
Gauge:
Doesn’t really matter
Pattern:
Row 1: Ch-17, dc in third ch from hook and in each across. (15)
Row 2: Ch-1, turn. Sc in each (15)
Row 3: Ch-2, dc in each (15)
Alternate rows 2 & 3 until you reach desired length. Keep wrapping it around your calf, keeping in mind that you may be wearing jeans underneath them.
When desired length is reached, fasten off leaving long tail for sewing.
Putting wrong sides together, sew short sides in your preferred method. Turn right-side out.
For upper portion of boot cuff:
Find the seam and attach yarn by pulling up a loop. Sc in each st around, making sure you end with an even number of stitches (and don’t do too many or it will balloon out. Try to stick with two per DC and one per SC). Join.
Row 1: Ch-1, sc in next st, dc in next. Repeat around and join to first with sl st.
Row 2: Ch-2, dc in first st, sc in next. Repeat around and join to first with sl st.
***make sure your dcs are going into the scs of the previous row and the scs are going into your dcs of the previous row***
Alternate rows 1 & 2 until desired height is reached. Fasten off and weave in ends.
DONE!
You can wear them right side up OR flip them upside down for the ribbed look instead. How versatile and fun!
