Welcome! Join in the fun “Cupcake of the Month” 2017 Knit-Along, starting with our JANUARY Snowman & Snowlady!

This cute couple are celebrating the New Year with Mr. Snowman in a formal Bow Tie and Top Hat! They are made with Caron Simply Soft Party yarns, which add a metallic sparkle to make them extra special!

“Snow Sparkle” which has opal-iridescent sparkles is the White yarn used - and it works perfectly for the look of snow sparkling in the sunlight! The cupcake liner features a twisted stitch ribbing and makes an easy cable look with no cable needle required. You can either use yarn to stitch the eyes, buttons and arms, or get creative by adding beads, buttons and short DPNs as arms!

These Cupcakes can be used as decoration, a sweet birthday gift for a winter birthday, a pincushion and even a DPN holder!

Craft Designs for You ~ 2017 KAL features a monthly-themed Cupcake to knit, from January to December, for a total of 12 delicious, no-cal Cupcakes!

Most stitches used are basic ones and are suitable for Advanced Beginners. If you are new to knitting in the round, now is a great time to learn, on these cupcakes!
