Note: you can make the frosting part smaller or bigger by taking out the last couple of rows, or make it bigger by adding rows at the end and following in the same pattern (sc in first 14, 2 sc in next st, etc).

 

Note: You will be turning your work and then sewing together at the end.

Bottom of Cupcake Hat

Row 3: ch 3, *dc in front post, dc in back post* repeat until end of row. Ch 3, turn work. (This explains how to crochet front and back posts.)

Rows 4-6: repeat row 3. Fasten off and leave long tail for sewing sides together.

 

Note: To make this hat smaller or bigger, simply chain less or more at the beginning and follow the rest of the pattern.

Sewing Together

Once you have both top and bottom finished sew the bottom piece to the frosting top. Sew around evenly through the bottom inside loop of the frosting part to the top of the bottom of the cupcake hat.

 

Note: You can add sprinkles by sewing different colors into the top part of the beanie, or add a cherry on top.
