Hello Rainbows 🌈

Let’s go to open the 2nd box of the Gourmet Advent Calendar! Another delicacy with a touch of Christmas: The Christmas Cupcake 🧁

A cup with Christmas balls and a green cream to form the greenery of the tree, all topped with a star 🎄
This Cupcake was the first that came to mind when I prepared this Advent Calendar. Personally, I’ve never made a Cupcake and I think I would have a hard time making one like this so I wanted to at least crochet it. Well on the other hand, this one we can’t eat.. 😅 But it’s just as appetizing, isn’t it? 😋

This little Christmas Cupcake will be perfect as a Christmas decoration (I plan to put it in my tree) or as a gift! Quick and easy to crochet, it will bring its dose of Greedy to your Christmas 🎅
The pattern is suitable for crocheters with an advanced beginner level.

Tuck your hook into the stitch.

Then tuck it into the next stitch. So you have your hook in two stitches at this point.

Bring the yarn back through the two stitches, then make a single crochet. Continue like this all along
the row.
