This cute crochet cuff is simple and sweet. It was based off the knit version by Champagne Maker; her version is called My Secret Life With Bees. This pattern is easy to alter to fit any wrist size.

Gauge
Gauge is not particularly important for this pattern as you can add rows to make the cuff taller and you can add chains to the initial chain to make the cuff fit any wrist size.
Abbreviations
- ch – chain

Cuff Instructions
ch. 31 with color A and 3.5 mm hook
Row 1: sc in 2nd chain from hook and remaining chains; ch 1, turn (30 sts)

At this point you will attach color B along the bottom left corner of the cuff and follow the pattern below around the edges of the cuff. You will now be using the 2.75 mm hook as well.

- 3 sc in corner; 9 sc along the side of the cuff; 3 sc in the corner; cut yarn; make an invisible join, and weave in the ends
Now it is time to embroider your cuff. You may embroider whatever you’d like, but I used the lazy daisy stitch to create the daisies on my cuff. You will find a video here. The woman is use fabric and embroidery floss, but it is the same technique.
Next I attached two buttons on the sc side of the cuff. They should like up with the ch 4 on the other side of the cuff.
Last, I sewed fabric on the back side of the cuff for structure. It isn’t necessary, but it is fun to pick out fabric and good sewing practice!
