Last night I tried to sew sequins on the cupcake hats for some added bling.
45 minutes later I had 4 done.
Since this are on knitting, each one has to be sewn on individually and knotted. I can’t go from one to another as on woven fabric as this has be able to stretch.
The invisible thread is invisible. My aging eyes and the artificial light just make it more challenging.
I don’t want to buy anything else and I’m running out of time so I may have to rethink this idea.
This afternoon I tried to add some bling to the cupcake hats. The only thing I could think of was seed beads. Or should that be “were”? Anyway I sewed a few seed beads on one hat to see what it looked like. 
It was cute but when I tried it on, the beads dug into my head.
So no bling on the cupcake hats. Unless you have another suggestion…
They will be gifted this coming Saturday.
I’ve been working on these for a couple of weeks and finally got around to photographing them. I think I still want to add some sparkle with small beads.
The bobbles are different. The pink hat has half the amount of bobbles as the purple hat. Too much time elapsed between making them and I didn’t remember how I placed them.
They will fit the twins and I don’t have any small heads to model them so you will have to use your imagination. If I’m lucky, I’ll get some pictures of them wearing the hats.
Cupcake Pattern: Chile Con Yarne
Cherry on top: Cherries are the Bomb
Yarn: stuff from my stash. Lion Brand tan heather for the ribbing, Caron Simply Soft Strawberry for the pink hat, Red Heart Super Saver Lavender for the purple hat, Lion Brand dark green heather for the cherry stems, and some unidentified red yarn for the cherries. I over stuffed the cherries but I’m not removing any.
Last Friday I wrote about my decision to knit fingerless mitts for Christmas gifts for the people in my office.
Today my boss told me that a friend of hers just crocheted a hat and fingerless mitts for her.
It’s hard to come up with an idea that will work for both men and women.
I’m still going to knit them.
