These wrist cuffs coordinate with my Chic and Simple Neckwarmer pattern. They are really fast to crochet and it’s a great project for beginners. I love using boucle yarn because it is not only soft but it also disguises the stitches, making the end result look like faux fur. If you have matching vintage buttons around they can add a lot of punch to this project making it as elegant or downplayed as you like. If you need the wrist cuffs to be slightly larger, simply add to the beginning chain and lay it over your wrist and adjust accordingly. Have fun!

Crochet Pattern: Wrist Cuffs (Make 2)
Row 1: ch 30, dc in fourth ch from hook (beginning ch 3 counts as 1 dc now and throughout) and in each ch across: 27 dc
Row 2-3: ch 3, turn, dc in each dc across: 27 dc
Once you have completed 3 rows, finish off and weave in loose ends.

Finishing
It’s now time to sew on your button. Button placement is on the center row and 2 double crochet stitches from the outside edge of the cuff. Use the spaces between the double crochet stitches on the opposite end of the cuff for the button hole.
