A wrist cuff is a practical solution for keeping warm. By combining a few different kinds of crochet stitches, you can create a thick cuff to wear throughout the winter and combat the frigid weather.

Stitch the back-post double-crochet stitch by putting the yarn over the hook and then inserting the hook into the back of your next stitch. Pull through with three loops on the hook.
