Fast and easy, simple yet feminine, the Regal Cuffs have a stretchy main body that hugs the wrists (no need to bother with closures) and a shell edging that looks like a royal crown. |

They remind me of legwarmers.

cute ! ok now i have the caregivers whom help with my daughter Christmas gifts ! thanks Rachel. last year i used one of your patterns for these loving helpers and they were all thrilled. ah oh i am setting a pattern here…they will expect a rachel design each year…i depend on you now. thanks so much for your free patterns.
I have Granddaughters I plan on making the Regal Cuffs for. They have all the other stuff and they will love these
i wouldn’t wear them but i will SO make them for a good friend of mine who would 😀 thanks for the great patterns Claire!
I like these. They will keep you a little warmer in the winter and give the illusion of layers……perfect!
Thank you so much for all the inspiration. I am starting to make the cuffs today.
These cuffs are really cute!
My granddaughter will LOVE these!
Thank you Claire!!
What exactly do you mean by ‘back ridge of chain’??
Hello Che! You can read more about that in Rachel’s post: Where is the Back Ridge of a Chain in Crochet?. Happy crocheting 🙂
[…] Laura makes a pink pair of Regal Cuffs. […]
I moved the hook size down to 3.50 will that work for this pattern? I want this to fit a young child, if that helps 😀
Jenny, I think it still might be a little too big for a child’s wrist although it depends how large the child’s wrist is. You can sew an elastic band to the inside of the cuff to tighten it if you’d like.
Thank you! that’s a great idea, i had a feeling it might be still be too big even with the different size hook, so this is a good alternative
I love these to bits.
Really, love them.
Going to make as many as I can!
These will work perfect for my regal old fashioned costumes!
Thanks!
Thanks for the great pattern! I’m really into cuffs right now, and I love these. Hope you’re feeling my appreciation beams. 🙂
