My Little Cupcake

Here's a cute little idea my co-worker requested I create as a "Special" little gift for a special friend. It started out as a pin cushion & now I have adaapted it so the top is removable & can also act as a little trinket box or sachet. What a fabulous idea for enclosing that little gift of cash or gift certificate.



What a fun little project!

I was browsing thru an old Crafts 'n Things a month ago and saw a little cupcake pin cushion...it was cute, but small...and well....I don't knit, so I passed it by. As the days went by, though, I couldn't stop thinking about it. I have a friend...well a few friends, but 1 in particular that just LOVES cupcakes!
So, I asked a friend at work who knits if she had ever seen one. She hadn't so we went searching...and boy was I delighted and surprised to see the number of Knit Food Patterns there are on the web. Cupcakes, Doughnuts, Cake, Fruit...wow!

So Diane got started and made me one that I could send to Jessica...and then the obsession began...I think she has made 10-15 of these darlings in the last month! Good thing she does a lot of Craft Shows! :)




I wish I had taken more pictures...maybe Jessica has taken some...I'll check and add them here if she has more.


ETA: Here are a few more pics Jessica took...gives you an idea of the size...



(If you are interested in purchasing one of these contact me and I will get you pictures of what is available, or Diane can make one to your color specifics. They are $10 each)
