12th Day of Christmas: Shell Topped Boot Cuffs

It's the 12th Day of CKC Christmas and you are in for a TREAT today!  This free pattern comes to us from Kristi Fitzpatrick, who has an amazing women's pattern coming out later this week AND she is opening up our brand new category of crochet patterns in January! 

So what better way to celebrate the new line than with a free crocheting tutorial today?  If you haven't bothered to learn crocheting in the past (like me), I'm pretty sure this next photo is going to inspire you to learn asap!

Aren't these boot cuffs amazing!?! 

 You can download our free crochet PDF pattern for Shell Topped Boot Cuffs here! 

 This pattern is rated Beginner and you just need to learn a few basic crochet skills before jumping in. Kristi assures me that I can learn the basics on YouTube with just a little patience, and we will also be having lots of helps here on the blog in January when our first official patterns release. Are you as super excited as I am?!  

Of course many of you already know how to crochet, and we would love to see your adorable boot cuffs you make with this free tutorial. Please model and share them in our patterns group on Facebook!! They will look fantastic with all different styles of boots so don't hold back!

 And that's not all!  Speaking of our big release in January, we have a giveaway for you today, to share the excitement! 

All you need to do to enter the giveaway is comment below (on the blog) and tell us your thoughts on our upcoming crochet patterns. What are you most excited about? What would you like to see?  One lucky fan will win their choice of one of our brand new CKC Crochet patterns on the day they release! Mark your calendars for January 5, 2015!!  (A few sneak peeks are in the image above!) 

We would also LOVE for you to share this with your friends on Facebook and pin it on Pinterest!  We can't reward you for it (new Pinterest and Facebook rules) but we can see when you pin it and it makes us so happy! All you have to do to pin from here is hover your cursor over the image and click the Pinterest icon that appears.
