These sturdy boot toppers are perfect for hiking, working in the yard, or just kicking around on cold, rainy days. Three variations -- for plain, fold-over, and lace-up cuffs -- are included. The simple yet striking diagonal rib cuff and basic ribbed leg work up quickly, so you can knit up a pair or three in no time.

The samples are knit in a beautiful, rustic Shetland yarn. To gussy up the look, simply choose a soft, supple yarn.
