Crochet Donuts

June 6, 2014

Happy National Donut Day! Apparently this is a real holiday that falls on the first Friday of every June. I can definitely get on board with this because I love donuts (who doesn’t?!). Plus lots of popular donut chains are handing out FREE donuts today <— click the link to see where to get your free donuts!  Of course you can also make yourself a calorie free version with these crocheted donuts 🙂 They are flat and can be used as an appliquĂ©, coasters, play food, or perfect to chain together for some festive bunting!

Materials:
– Worsted Weight Yarn. I used Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice in Beige, Chocolate, Pink, White, and scraps of other colors for the sprinkles.
– Size H Crochet Hook
– Tapestry Needle

Abbreviations:
SC = Single Crochet
HDC = Half Double Crochet
French Knot Tutorial <— click highlighted text

Donut Pattern:
With beige yarn…
Chain 1, join to first chain to make a circle, chain 1, make 12 SC inside circle. Join to first SC, ch 1
Round 2: 2 SC in each stitch around, join, ch 1 (24 SC)
Round 3: 2 SC in first stitch, SC in next two stitches, repeat around, join, ch 1 (32 SC)
Round 4: SC in each stitch around, join to first SC (32 SC)
Fasten off and weave in ends

I made two frosting patterns. One that is round and one that has a wavy edge. Use whichever you prefer or mix them up like I did!

Wavy Frosting Pattern:
Chain 1, join to first chain to make a circle, chain 1, make 12 SC inside circle. Join to first SC, ch 1
Round 2: In next stitch make 4 HDC, SC in next, *4 HDC, SC, repeat from * around. Join, fasten off and leave long tail to sew onto donut.

Round Frosting Pattern:
Chain 1, join to first chain to make a circle, chain 1, make 12 SC inside circle. Join to first SC, ch 1
Round 2: 2 SC in each stitch around, join, ch 1 (24 SC)
Round 3: 2 SC in first stitch, SC in next two stitches, repeat around, join (32 SC)
Fasten off leaving a long tail to sew onto donut.

To make round sprinkles, follow this tutorial on how to make a french knot. For long sprinkles, just stitch them on with a tapestry needle. Use your tapestry needle to make a “frosted wave” as well.

When you have attached your sprinkles, sew the frosting onto the donut by working your tapestry needle under the edge of the last stitch made.

Now enjoy your donuts guilt-free! Happy Donut Day!

    Today is Sweden´s National Day, and most of us are celebrating doing absolutley nothing at all. To bad we didn´t know about the donuts! They are so much nicer then herring and stockfish.

    Hi Sarah,
    I've been following you for a while & love your patterns!
    We're possibly going to be snowed in for the next few days. The kids got a market stand from Santa (or ikea) & wanted to set up a donut shop! I thought this was the perfect pattern for it!
    This may sound silly, but i'm confused by the very first step…and I've been doing this for a while too :/
    Can you help clarify? When I chain one, and try to join to the first chain, I lose my stitch, it just pulls out…so I did it again and joined to the back of the chain 1, to get a circle…after that, I did the 12 sc, but the donut center just seems too small (maybe 1/2 cm)…how wide should the opening be?
    Thank you!! Kate

      I was wondering about the same thing! I think it is more likely that we're supposed to chain more than one (maybe 5 or 10?) and THEN join to first chain… But I dont know… Did you figure it out?

        I had the same difficulty with the 1 chain. I ended up chaining anywhere from 4 to 8 chains depending how big I wanted the center hole to be then the 12 sc in the ring. They are turning out so cute!!

    Ok..ive been playing and I chained 10, formed a circle then Sc 12 into circle. My finished donut only measured just over 2 inches across so a bit small for coasters (which I thought they were haha) but nonetheless, a very cute little embellishment or pretend play item

    I think the first step is missing something is wrong with the first step. Are there supposed to be more than one chain to start off?

    It’s very overwhelming to make a expert texts in a brief time period and even own heads full of suggestions to create brand new ones. I need say that the blogger is a professional author.

    The first part of the pattern is confusing. I just used the magic circle, made a chain 1 then did the 12 SC. It worked out fine.

    The last year few years have seen online casinos open up their doors to various modes of payments. No longer are debit and credit cards or bank transfers, the only way for you to deposit money.
