Amigurumi – Crochet Small Birthday Cake “Tuttifrutti”

In this simple crochet pattern, I’ll show you how to crochet a small birthday cake. The crocheted small birthday cake is very suitable for your Amigurumi birthday party, but you can also use it as a decoration or key ring.

Introduction: Amigurumi – Crochet Small Birthday Cake “Tuttifrutti”

Knowledge: Amigurumi – Crochet Small Birthday Cake “Tuttifrutti”

  • Double Crochet Stitches (UK!)
  • Half Treble Crochet Stitches (UK!)
  • Magic Ring
  • Spiral Rounds

Note! By offsetting regular increases and decreases, they become almost invisible. You can recognize regular increases by the phrase “double every … stitch,” and regular decreases by the phrase “crochet together every … and … stitch”. The stitch chart for spheres and circles might also be helpful for you.

Note! Using a special technique for invisible decreases makes them nearly invisible. Although this technique requires a bit of practice, it’s worth giving it a try.

Supplies: Amigurumi – Crochet Small Birthday Cake “Tuttifrutti”

Crochet Hook

You will need a crochet hook with a size of 12 (british). For converting to other sizes, the crochet hook size converter will help you. I have selected some great crochet hooks for you here.

Filling

For filling, I used synthetic filling made of 100% polyester. However, there are numerous alternatives for filling material. If you’ve run out of filling, I’ve prepared a refill for you here.

Scissors – any

You’ll need any scissors. It’s best to use your most beautiful scissors because it brings you joy. If you don’t have really nice scissors, I’ve picked out some lovely ones for you.

Wool Needle

You’ll need a wool needle with a blunt tip. The thickness of the wool needle should match the thickness of your yarn. You might like the set of wool needles I’ve picked out for you.

Yarn – Schachenmayr – Catania – 106 – weiß

I used yarn in the shade White. The material is 100% cotton. The yardage is 137 yds / 1.75 oz. If you want to replenish your supply, I’ve already picked out the matching yarn for you here.

Yarn – Schachenmayr – Catania – 246 – rosa (hellrosa)

I used yarn in the shade Pink. The material is 100% cotton. The yardage is 137 yds / 1.75 oz. If you want to replenish your supply, I’ve already picked out the matching yarn for you here.

Yarn – Schachenmayr – Catania – 257 – bast (beige)

I used yarn in the shade Bast. The material is 100% cotton. The yardage is 137 yds / 1.75 oz. If you want to replenish your supply, I’ve already picked out the matching yarn for you here.

Note! The specified yarn was used for the example shown here. In principle, you can use any yarn and an appropriate needle size. However, the quality of the material also affects the quality of the result, so you should avoid cutting corners in the wrong place. Also, the thickness of the yarn and the needle will influence the size of the outcome, which you can, of course, intentionally take advantage of.

Note! If you want to change the size, you can simply use a thicker or thinner yarn with a suitable needle size. Simply doubling the rounds, rows, and stitches, on the other hand, will only result in an uneven outcome.

Crochet Birthday Cake Dough

Den Teig für die kleine Geburtstagstorte häkeln wir in die hintere stitcheskante der Glasur in spiral rounds mit ausschließlich double crochet stitches (UK!).

Dazu stichst du mit der Häkelnadel links vom Absatz des roundsanfangs in die stitcheskante auf der Rückseite deines Häkelstücks ein und holst in der ersten round den Faden mit einer slip stitch und beginnst mit einer chain stitch, was bis dahin noch nicht gezählt wird. Anschließend häkelst du die erste round ganz normal. Lediglich die letzte Masche sitzt dort, wo du mit der slip stitch begonnen hattest, damit der Absatz übersprungen werden kann. Anschließend häkelst du normal weiter in spiral rounds.

  • beige:
  • 1st – 6th round:
    • (= 6 rounds)
    • each stitch one stitch
    • = 36 stitches
  • 7th round:
    • stitch into back loop only
    • each stitch one stitch
    • = 36 stitches
  • 8th round:
    • crochet together every 5th and 6th stitch
    • = 30 stitches
  • 9th round:
    • crochet together every 4th and 5th stitch
    • = 24 stitches
  • 10th round:
    • crochet together every 3rd and 4th stitch
    • = 18 stitches
  • fill and stuff completely
  • 11th round:
    • crochet together every 2nd and 3rd stitch
    • = 12 stitches
  • 12th round:
    • crochet together every 1st and 2nd stitch
    • = 6 stitches
  • cut the thread generous, pull off the loop, close remaining opening, secure and weave in the thread end

Crochet Birthday Cake Border

Die Borte für die kleine Geburtstagstorte häkeln wir in die vordere stitcheskante des Teiges in spiral rounds mit verschiedenen stitches.

Das funktioniert genauso, wie beim Teig, nur das deine stitcheskante diesmal auf der Vorderseite des Häkelstückes liegt.

  • rosa:
  • 1st round:
    • repeat 18x:
      • into one stitch:
        • 1 double crochet stitch (UK!)
        • 1 half treble crochet stitch (UK!)
        • 1 double crochet stitch (UK!)
      • 1x 1 double crochet stitch (UK!) into one stitch
  • Faden großzügig abschneiden, Schlaufe auf ziehen, verbliebene Fadenenden zusammen sichern

Finish Small Birthday Cake

Als nächstes wollen wir die  Glasur annähen. Dazu verwendest du das lange Fadenende der Glasur und nähst die Tropfen der Glasur ringsherum an den Teig. Du nähst hier gerade so viel an, das sie die Glasur nicht nach oben wellen kann.

Anschließend kannst du die gehäkelte Geburtstagstorte noch ein wenig aufhübschen, zum Beispiel indem du bunte Perlen aufnähst oder bunte Streusel mit Stopfgarn aufstickst.

Fertig! Bleib kreativ!
