Birthday Cupcake Softie Crochet Pattern

By Sara Sach of  Posh Pooch Designs

Whether it's For a Birthday gift or just for fun,

This Cupcake Softie is adorable!

What's a Softie?
It's What My Grand daughter calls little stuffed pillows
 that are not Stuffed Animals.

It is very soft and squishy.

It measures About 8 inches tall and 16 inches around.

It is Designed it using Soft Essentials By Red Heart

 Which is a Bulky(5) yarn so it stitches up really quickly.

But it can also be crocheted with 

2 strands of WW (4) held together if you like.
