Cupcake Lovers Beanie and Scarf Set
Could this be the perfect gift for any bakers or cupcake lovers? Let everyone know who the birthday person is by tagging them with a lovely scarf or the set of Cupcake Lovers Beanie and Scarf! Possibly the most adorable set I've seen in a very long time, Cupcake Lovers Beanie is surprisingly easy and quick to work up for an infant or adult friend! So quick in fact, that you can make a handful of these Cupcake Lovers Beanies in a weekend. Imagine the different colors you can do. (Why does my brain always go to chocolate?) Try using buttons for the cherries instead of crocheting. How about sprinkles?
I was inspired to make this hat after seeing the cupcake edging in THIS ROUNDUP. Aren't these edgings amazing? So, I had to make the hat and you can look forward to other cupcake creations in the near future.
I can't wait to see what color combinations you use!
