A Different Sort of Cupcake

I've painted cupcakes (several times). But this is my first knitted cupcake. It's most certainly not my last knitted cupcake. This was so fun to knit. It's a pincushion and has one of those awful tomato pincushions knitted inside of it. For some reason, I find that so funny. It's like I've made a beautiful outfit for the homely little tomato. I've given it a new life! :)

Anyway, the pattern is from Susan B. Anderson who I just love. Her patterns are always so creative and innovative. Who would have thought to put the tomato inside? Susan, that's who!
