Cross My Heart Boot Cuffs Free Crochet Pattern
I am still in the process of getting my older patterns back on to the blog, which has been way more time consuming than I could have ever imagined. But, since it is almost February I thought this would be the perfect time to add my Cross My Heart Boot Cuff pattern.
These boot cuffs have hearts cross stitched on them and the crab stitch is used around the edge.
I used dk weight yarn in my sample but Worsted weight yarn would work, also. Just make sure you are measuring gauge so the sizing is correct.
