Amigurumi

Cupcake!!!


To make the cupcake you will need:
Worsted weight yarn
Size G/6 (4.25 mm) crochet hook
Fiberfill, Polypellets or stuffing of your choice
Little beads to use as sprinkles J

Abbreviations I used:
ch = chain
dec = decrease
hdc = half double crochet (UK: half-treble crochet)
R = round
sc = single crochet (UK: dc double crochet)
sk = skip
sl st = slip st (UK: sc single crochet)
st(s) = stitch(es)
* = repeat directions between * and * as many times as indicated


INSTRUCTIONS

Cupcake Bottom
I used brown yarn for a chocolate cupake
R1– Ch 2, 6 sc in second chain from hook
R2- 2 sc in each sc around (12 sts)
R3- *1 sc, 2 sc in next sc*, repeat 6 times (18 sts)
R4- *2 sc, 2 sc in next sc*, repeat 6 times (24 sts)
R5- *3 sc, 2 sc in next sc*, repeat 6 times (30 sts)

*Sc 3, dec 1*, repeat 6 times (24 sts)
R7- *3 sc, 2 sc in next sc*, repeat 6 times (30 sts)
R8- *4 sc, 2 sc in next sc*, repeat 6 times (36 sts)
R9-12: Sc 36
Bind off, leaving long tail approx. 13 inches long for sewing to top of cupcake

Cupcake Icing :)
I used pink yarn for strawberry icing
R1– Ch 2, 6 sc in second chain from hook
R2- 2 sc in each sc around (12 sts)
R3- *1 sc, 2 sc in next sc*, repeat 6 times (18 sts)
R4- *2 sc, 2 sc in next sc*, repeat 6 times (24 sts)
R5- *3 sc, 2 sc in next sc*, repeat 6 times (30 sts)
R6- *4 sc, 2 sc in next sc*, repeat 6 times (36 sts)
R7-10: Sc 36
Continue to make the wavy edge:
R11: *3 hdc in next st, sk 1 sc, 1 sl st in next st*, repeat 12 times (thank you Jaden!)
Bind off, weave in loose end.

Sew sprinkles to icing.

Assembly:
Place the icing on top of the bottom part, lining up the stitches of the bottom part to the stitches inside the wavy part of the top (so the wavy part won’t be sewed, sew by the part right on top of the waves). Sew around ¾ of the way and fill bottom part with polypellets, beans or rice so the cupcake sits nice, and the top part with fiberfill, cotton balls or stuffing of your choice so it’s nice and soft.
