Boot Cuffs: Times Three Toppers
Boot cuffs, boot toppers, boot liners, leg warmers… they have so many names. Whatever you call them, they add a cool decorative touch to any style of boot, without creating uncomfortable bulk around your feet. They will also cushion your bare leg from the rubbing that some boot tops can cause.
These three boot cuffs are all quite different, but all begin the same way. Dress up your boots this winter and be on trend with these three unique designs. Boot cuffs make great last-minute gifts too!
Daisy Daisy is knitted, with daisy stitch & a simple picot edge.
Ten Cables is knitted with a very basic cable design that wraps around.
(Both of these have a choice of knitted or crochet bind-off edge.)
Caerwyn Flower has a knitted sock for comfort, but the decorative top is all crochet. (This design can be matched as a set with my Caerwyn Sleevies pattern.)
These are all constructed in the round, with two ribbing choices
and two length options.
