Simple Boot Cuffs

I got these cute Wellies for Christmas and I decide I needed to make some boot cuffs to go with them.  I started with a pattern, but I didn’t like the way it was coming out, so I made up my own pattern.

  • Add a button to the front, right, or left of the cuff.
  • Add the lace in between the DC stitches on Row 13 and tie off in the front or back.
