Knitting By The Sea

Loom Knitted Cup Cake

 Loom Lady has a pattern for a loom knitted cupcake. I haven't loom knitted since I was a kid and was surprised to find it back in fashion. It is something I might explore when I have a little more time.

Knitted cakes and other novelties

There are many novelty patterns on Craftbits , including an iced chcocolate cake, liquorice allsorts and a slice if cherry pie. Bittersweet has a free pattern for a slice of chocolate birthday cake. Just one slice won't hurt!

  

 

Knitted Cupcakes

Every now and again I come across a blog that somehow I haven't stumbled across before and it blows me away. Little Cotton Rabbits is a wonderful read and filled with fantastic photo's and projects. These cupcakes are occasionally for sale in her little shop. Check out the mouthwatering knitted cake album. There is also a page of free knitting patterns to peruse.

Over at Morecambe Sands I am making it my blog of the day and featuring some wonderful DIY heart shaped crayons. Who knew that you could bake your own crayon shapes?

From Little Cotton Rabbits I was led to Blah Blah Blahhhg which has a seamless cupcake pattern and a list of people who have knitted it in various ways. Apparently there is a whole cupcake gallery on Ravelry but as there are still 2838 people ahead of me in the invite queue I can't see them yet, boo hoo.At least I am getting neareer to an invite. When I first joined there were over eleven thousand ahead of me.

Knitted eggs and knitted tea time treats

Jean greenhowe has some free patterns for some jolly knitted eggs, just the right size to pop a little chocolate egg into. There are also two lots of "Tea Time Treats patterns" on the same page, knitted sandwiches, cakes, biscuits and finger food.

There are a few more lovely patterns on the page as well. The Rainbow babies make ideal fund raisers.

Crochet Bacon and Eggs Handbag

More Bacon and Egg fryup goodies. Mkcarroll has a pattern to crochet one.

Bacon and Egg fry up pattern from Jackie annual 1979

I have realised that the link I published, to the bacon and egg fry up pattern originally published in The Jackie Annual in 1979, does not work all the time. It might be permanently down, I am not sure. I thought it might be helpful to anyone landing here looking for it if I provided the pattern myself. I've also installed various ways that you can subscribe to this site.

The pattern can be found on the right hand side of the page, or click here - Bacon and egg fry up pattern

Knitted cookies

Bitter Sweet has some amazing knitted Oreo cookies, or biscuits as we call them in the UK. There are lots of lovely knitted things there, even a pattern for a slice of birthday cake.

Knitted cupcakes / fairy cakes

Catmum has some lovely knitted cakes along with loads of others on oneskein.blogspot

Crochet carrot

Not knitted, but a Crochet carrot. I was looking for an image to decorate a recipe with and stumbled across this.

Knitted Custard Pie

Oh wow, a slapstick knit. Knit your own custard pie. Crumpart has very kindly posted the pattern.
