Summer is quickly approaching which can only mean one thing- ICE CREAM!
When I think of summer, I immediately think of ice cream sundaes. With the warmer months quickly coming up, I had to make a crocheted version of an ice cream sundae! I’m a firm believer in that ice cream can be eaten all year round, even when it’s super cold outside. But there’s just something about eating ice cream on a hot summer day that hits differently. Maybe it’s those days spent by the pool while the sun is shining or when you just need a cold treat to cool you down after a long hike.
This crocheted ice cream sundae can be customized to show off your favorite ice cream flavors. Whether you’re a fan of mint chocolate chip, like me, prefer birthday cake, or like to keep it simple with strawberry or chocolate, these amigurumi scoops of ice cream will have you wanting to make a trip to the store for the real deal! Stuff your bowl with one or two crochet scoops or go big with three or four. Just don’t forget the amigurumi cherry on top and your spoon!

For the chocolate chips, cake pieces, or strawberry pieces:
Cut a length of yarn about 15 inches or so. Tie a knot at one end. Using the yarn needle, stitch the pieces in various places all over the ice cream. I stitched over each spot twice so that the pieces were more visible and prominent. Don’t forget to make pieces on the bottom of the scoop as well!
Secure the yarn with a tail and hide inside the piece.
