Boot cuffs are a great addition to any wardrobe. Use them to add a splash of color, or to simply keep your legs warmer in the frigid winter temperatures. Grab your hook and whip up a pair of Reversible Boot Cuffs with me using this free crochet pattern!
Reversible Boot Cuffs
These boot cuffs are created short/bottom side first. Meaning that we will crochet a strip using the pattern below 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 building until we reach the desired height.
This pattern is very customizable and great for beginners too!
Materials:
Any worsted weight yarn
-less than one skein
Crochet hook in size H/5mm
Gauge: unimportant
Pattern Notes:
Pattern written using US terms.
The chain(s) at the beginning of the row do not count as a stitch.
For these boot cuffs we are using the Lemon Peel stitch. This stitch uses just single crochets and double crochets, and there is a full tutorial for this stitch here.

Boot Cuff Pattern:
Row 1: Ch-17, dc in third ch from hook and in each ch across. (15)
Row 2: Ch-1, turn, sc in each st across. (15)
Row 3: Ch-2, turn, dc in each st across. (15)
Alternate rows 2 & 3 until, when wrapped around your calf, the sides barely touch.

We'll email this post to you, so you can come back to it when you're ready.
When desired length is reached, put wrong sides together and sl st the first row to the last row. (You could also seam using the Mattress Stitch, but this creates more ends to weave in).
Turn right-side out.
Upper portion of boot cuff:
Preparation row: Ch-1, sc in each row end around, making sure you end with an even number of stitches. Try to place two scs per double crochet row and one st per single crochet row. Join to top of first st with sl st.
Row 1: Ch-1, turn, * sc in next st, dc in next * repeat between * * around. Join to top of first st.
Row 2: Ch-2, turn, * dc in first st, sc in next * repeat between * * around. Join to top of first st.
Rows 3 – 14 (or until desired height is reached): Alternate rows 1 & 2 until desired height is reached. Fasten off and weave in ends.
You can wear them right side up OR flip them upside down for the ribbed look instead. How versatile and fun!

These patterns are amazing! Just what I have been looking for. I am going shopping right now to get the yarn for the Dragon gloves. I upcycle everything and I might make a different pair of these and attach the fingers of some thrifted leather gloves. My grandsons love Dragons and I will definitely be making some for Christmas.
You are so talented! Have a great weekend also.

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful designs with your crochet community this holiday season. I love following your blog, and I love your crochet creativity!
Love the boot cuff pattern but I love the boots too, do you know where you got them? And maybe I can do a mail order….??? Please and thank you for your help and of course the pattern
I’m confused. In the upper cuff instructions it says to repeat rows 2 & 3, but the instructions only refer to rows 1 & 2.
Hi Lenore! Thank you for pointing that out! It should be repeat rows 1 & 2…It is now fixed in the pattern.
Ashlea- does the repeat pattern for the upper portion begin with the ch1 (row 1) and chain 2 (row 2)? Or does it begin with the crochet stitch?
In other words row 1: ch1, s.c., dc;ch1, s.c., dc; etc.
Hey! It should start with a ch-1 each row on the upper portion. Does that help? I’m not sure I understand the question, but I think that’s what you mean! Let me know. Thanks
I want your boots! <3
Ha! Thanks! They are Fergie from Famous Footwear. Got them last year and they are my favorite!
