Hi everyone, today’s tutorials shows how to make these knitting and sewing themed cupcake toppers. I made these cupcakes for my mum’s birthday. She took up knitting over lockdown and has made some pretty cool things for my girls. So very apt that I should make her these knitting themed cupcakes! I hope you like them.

As usual, these toppers were made with white Renshaw Flower and Modelling Paste. I created the colours using food colouring paste and gels. A link to all the items that I used can be found at the bottom of this post. I cut out white circles of modelling paste the day before to give them time to dry out. That way I had a base to work on when making the toppers.

To make the tutorials easier to follow, I’ve split them up into the two categories, knitting and sewing.

I loved making the ball of wool and knitting cupcake toppers. I’m happy to say, that no special tools are required to make the knitting effect either.

In the video tutorial below I share how I made the ball of wool and knitting needle cupcake and the cupcake topper.

It’s worth mentioning that when I made the knitting cupcake topper, I wound the modelling paste away from me both times. This is because I found there was a natural way for me to wind and trying the other way was harder. That’s is why I start from one end and then the other, as I feel that this is easier.
