GAUGE
16 sts and 22 rows = 4? in St st
BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE.

(MN) MAKE NUBBLE
Pull loop throught the next st as if to K, then place this look on the left needle next to the original stitch.
(Think knitted cast on!)
Pull new loop through the second st as if to K, then place loop on the left needle next to the second stitch.
Repeat twice. BO 4 kwise. The fifth stitch is now on the right needle.

DIRECTIONS
With Cup Color, CO 80 sts.
Work in k2 p2 ribbing for 1 row, join in the round and continue k2p2 for 2 inches.

Switch to Frosting Color.
K one row.
Next row, *K1, MN. Repeat until you’ve made one row of nubbles. (40 times, but who wants to count that?)
K until entire peice measures 5 1/2 inches.
*Knit 8 stitches, place a marker. Repeat from * 9 more times.
*K 6, k2tog, pass marker. Repeat from * 9 more times.
*K 5, k2tog, pass marker. Repeat from * 9 more times.
*K 4, k2tog, pass marker. Repeat from * 9 more times.
*K 3, k2tog, pass marker. Repeat from * 9 more times.
*K 2, k2tog, pass marker. Repeat from * 9 more times.
*K 1, k2tog, pass marker. Repeat from * 9 more times.
*K2tog, remove marker. Repeat from * 9 more times.

Continue to k2tog until 5 stitches remain.
Break off yarn and thread the end through the remaining 5 stitches.

With the chunky red, make a pom pom, about 1 inch wide. Whatever looks best on your cupcake.

Weave in loose ends.

Now here’s an optional part: With the buttons, you can sew on “sprinkes.” Spare yarn, you can stitch on “jimmies.” Same thing with the beads, rhinestones, whatever you like. But if this hat is intended for a child under 2 years of age, DO NOT attach any buttons, or anything that can be pulled off and choked on.
