Knitting Machine Cupcake Dolls~Easy and fun!

These adorable knitting machine cupcake dolls are so addictive! They make such great gifts to the special little girls in your life and are a keepsake they will treasure for years to come. I made mine with my neice as a craft together and we had such a fun time making them and making memories.
These dolls will also make great stocking stuffers for Christmas or gifts for classmates at school. Make a dozen for a girl's birthday party as party favors and give them something memorable and fun!

You could even change up the embellishments to look like different kinds of fruit or candy on top, or even put a hat on top that looks like icing. The options are endless! If you make it and share on social media, please tag me at dayscrochetnc. I would love to see what you made!

I was inspired by Made by Miranda's version of cupcake dolls, which has a lot fewer steps and would be best for a beginner. You can find her video tutorial here: https://youtu.be/1TCI-T3SyS8

Supplies Needed:
-22 pin circular knitting machine. I'm using the Addi Pro, but you could use any knitting machine that has a similar pin count and get the same results, like the Sentro or Jammit
-Crochet hooks, sizes 3.75 mm, 4.25 mm, and 5.0 mm for crochet embellishments
-5 yarn colors for the doll: hair, face/skin, bodice, skirt, and "cupcake wrapper". You will knit them in that order, casting on with the hair color and casting off (using your yarn needle) with the cupcake wrapper color. You will use very little yardage. You may also wish to have different colors for the whipped cream, fruit/berry, cookie, and rose. For my sample in the video, I used a total of 7 different colors.
-7 4mm or 6mm beads for necklace (optional)
-Monofilament illusion cord (or non-stretch beading string) for the necklance (optional)
-embroidery thread or safety eyes
-polyfil stuffing
-Hot glue gun and glue sticks
-Yarn needle, scissors, stitch marker
