These lovely boot toppers have a unique construction. The ribbed cuff is worked flat before joining in to a tube, at which point the decorative cuff is worked in to the edge of the ribbing. A fold is created by working in the front loop only, then the contrasting color is used to create a lacy decorative edge. Finally, the edge is bordered with the main color to tie it all together. The finished topper will have a slight ruffle to the decorative edge and the ribbed cuff will fit snuggly but comfortably around the calf.
