Pattern Overview

This project is broken into three main sections:

1. Making Daisy Granny Squares: Each cuff requires 4 squares (or adjust for your boot size).
2. Joining Squares: Connecting the squares to create the base cuff.
3. Adding Frills and the Leg Warmer Section: Adding ruffled frills to the bottom and a leg warmer section for the top with ties to secure around your legs.

Step-by-Step Pattern

Step 1: Daisy Granny Square

Center Circle

1. Start with a slip knot and chain 4.
2. Slip stitch into the first chain to form a ring.
3. Center DC Round:
   • Ch 3 (counts as 1st DC), yarn over, and make 11 DC into the center of the ring.
   • The total number of stitches will be 12 (including the first Ch 3).
   • Slip stitch into the top of the Ch 3 to close the round.
   • Cut and secure yarn; attach the next color for the petals.

Flower Petals

1. Attach the petal color yarn in any stitch.
2. Start Petal:
   • Chain 4 (counts as 1st Treble (Tr)).
   • Yarn over twice; work 2 incomplete Treble Crochets in the same stitch:
     • Insert hook, yarn over, pull through 2 loops twice. Leave the last loop on the hook. Repeat for the next Treble.
     • You should have 4 loops on your hook.
   • Yarn over, pull through all loops.
3. Chain 2, then move to the next stitch and repeat the petal instructions (a cluster of 3 incomplete Treble Crochets).
4. Continue this pattern around the circle to create 12 petals, separated by chain 2.
5. At the end, chain 2 and slip stitch into the top of the first petal cluster.
   • Fasten off and attach a yarn color of your choice to create the square outline.

Square Border

1. Attach the third color yarn in any Ch-2 space.
2. Corner Formation:
   • Chain 4 (counts as 1st Tr), then make 2 Tr in the same space.
   • Chain 3 and add 3 Tr into the same space. This forms a corner.
3. Side Formation:
   • Chain 1, make 3 DC in the next Ch-2 space. Chain 1. Continue until the next petal.
   • For each new corner, work (3 Tr, Ch 3, 3 Tr) in the same space.
4. Continue forming corners and sides until the square is completed.
5. Slip stitch into the 4th chain of the starting corner. Cut and fasten off.

✦ Make 4 squares for each boot cuff, alternating colors as desired.

Step 2: Joining the Squares

1. Arrangement: Arrange the finished squares with right sides facing each other if using alternate colors.
2. Joining Method (Slip Stitch Back Join):
   • Place two squares side by side, right sides facing in.
   • Using the same yarn color as the square border, insert your hook into the back loops only of the corresponding stitches on both squares.
   • Yarn over and pull through both loops to make a slip stitch. Continue this method across the edge.
3. Join all 4 squares to make a continuous circle.

Step 3: Adding Frills

1. Attach a contrasting yarn color to any corner space of the squares.
2. Row 1 of Frills:
   • Chain 1, work HDC into the same space, and HDC into each join and corner around.
   • After every 3 HDC, make a picot stitch (Ch 3, Sl St into the back loop of the last HDC worked). Repeat around.
3. Slip stitch to the starting stitch and fasten off.

Step 4: Leg Warmer Section

1. Row 1:
   • Join the yarn to the top of a square and work a round of HDC into every stitch around.
2. Rows 2 Onward:
   • Work SC into the back loops only for a foldable effect.
   • Alternate normal DC rounds with DC decrease rounds to taper the leg warmer.
     • Example: 5 DC, then 1 DC decrease. Increase the number of DC between decreases each round.

Step 5: Ties

1. At the base of the leg warmer, make a long chain (approx. 50-60 Ch) directly after the last Sl St.
2. Fasten off and weave the tie through the bottom row of stitches. Repeat on the opposite side for the second tie.

Customizations

• Color Scheme: Use leftovers or gradient yarn for a unique look.
• Frill Style: Experiment with lace-like edges or shell stitches.
• Square Size: Add a round of single crochet if the squares need a slight size adjustment.
• Stretch Fit: Consider a stretchy ribbing stitch for the leg warmer section.
