I was working up another one of my knit cupcake dolls and decided to give it a summery touch. I made the frosting hat look more like a sunflower and decided instead of a cherry on top, it needed a bumblebee. Of course, the bumblebee needed to be relatively small like the cherry, so I designed my own tiny knit bumblebee using Lionbrand’s Bonbons cotton yarn. Instructions for pattern include creating it flat and in the round.
