'Hot cross buns! Hot cross buns! One ha’ penny, two ha’ penny, Hot cross buns!'
Discover the joy of creating these adorable, bite-sized Hot Cross Buns, perfect for your Easter celebrations! Knitted in just minutes from leftover DK yarn, each bun cleverly conceals a Ferrero Rocher chocolate, making them an excellent choice for sweet Easter gifts and delightful table favors. They are a fun way to bring a bit of festive cheer to your home and impress your guests.
For the base of the buns, I've selected a lovely cream-mix yarn with subtle flecks of black and brown to imitate the look of currants and raisins, adding a touch of realism to your knitted treats. You can find full yarn suggestions included in the pattern so you can customize your buns to suit your style.
Key features of this knitting pattern include:
- * Classic Stocking Stitch for a textured finish
- * Worked Flat for simplicity
- * 4mm Single-pointed Needles for crafting the bun itself
- * 3.25mm Single-pointed Needles dedicated to the decorative cross on top
The finished Hot Cross Bun Cover measures approximately 5.5cm, making it the perfect size to hide a delicious chocolate surprise inside.
