A flower shape worked into the pattern by intarsia, plus two flowers on top, makes three!

One flower is worked into the top with intarsia, and 2 more flowers are knitted separately and sewn on.

It is fun and practical to make as only minimal seaming is required. The main cupcake is knitted in one piece from the bottom upwards, with just one seam to sew. Three double pins are used from rows 7-12, to ease the tension from multiple increases (not knitted in the round).

Use any DK yarn with the option of a fluffy yarn for added texture.

Finished size is approx 8cm / 3 inches diameter, and approx 6cm/ 2 inches high.
