Knitted Cupcake Egg Cosy – Knitting Pattern
Knitted Cupcake Egg Cosy – Knitting Pattern
I used a fluffy “sugar wisp” wool in the cream and brown cosy and my daughter refers to it as “the wild one”.
This is just a fun little knitting exercise that only takes minutes to make.
Abbreviations:
St(s) = stitches
K = knit
P = purl
Inc = increase knit (or purl) twice into stitch
K2tog (or p2tog) = work next two sts together
You will need:
Scraps of wool in two colours (for base and cake)for cupcake and red if you wish to add a cherry on top!
4mm knitting needles
Beads (if desired)
Cast on 24 stitches with 4mm needles in base colour.
Row 1-6: *K1, P1*, repeat from * to *.
]]>
Change to cake colour.
Row 7-16: Continue in stocking stitch.
Row 17: *K1, K2 tog* until end (16 sts)
Row 18: Purl
Row 19: K2 together until end (8 sts)
Break yarn and thread through remaining stitches pulling tightly.
Sew up side of cosy and attach cherry on top. Decorate with beads if desired.
Cherry Cast on 6 stitches. Knit six rows stocking stitch.
Cast off.
Sew running stitch around outside edges and gather tightly.
This pattern uses leftover scraps of wool and is fun to make. You can make a set of egg cosies with the same colour combination or you can make a different one for each member of the family. The children usually love choosing their colours and their beads. We now have a collection of egg cosies and the children choose according to their moods on the day. Makes for a fun breakfast!
