Gauge, Approximate Size, and Pattern Notes

Gauge:

Gauge isn’t critical for this project, but working too tightly may result in an overly small case.

Finished Dimensions:

Approx. 2.5 inches wide and 4 inches tall (or sized to snugly fit your AirPods case).

Special Techniques:

• Continuous rounds (spiral) are used for most of the project.
• Basic shaping techniques like increases and decreases are employed.
• Optional: A quick gauge swatch can be made with SC stitches to check sizing before continuing.

Step-by-Step Pattern

Step 1: Cupcake Base (Body)

Round 1: CH 6, join with a SL ST to create a circle.

Round 2: Work 12 SCs into the ring. Place stitch marker to mark the beginning of the round.

Round 3: INC in each stitch around (24 SC).

Round 4-8: Work 1 SC in each stitch (no increases) to build height.

Step 2: Frosting Section

Switch to your frosting color yarn:

Round 9: Work 1 SC in each stitch around.

Round 10: Use alternating INC and HDC stitches to create a “swirl” effect resembling icing.

Round 11: Continue working HDCs and INC for a raised, fluffy frosting appearance.

Step 3: Fitting and Closure

Round 12-14: SC evenly around while sculpting a slight taper at the top to hug the AirPods case. Use DEC as necessary.

Create a flap using CH stitches that can loop over the closure system (button, snap, etc.).

Step 4: Detailing

Add slip stitches around the frosting edge to accentuate the cupcake design.

Stitch or sew a button securely to the flap for a functional closure mechanism.

Finishing Touches

Weave in all ends using your yarn needle.

Test the fit with your AirPods case to ensure snugness.

Optional: Embellish with small beads or embroidery for sprinkles on the frosting.
