What could be better than an extra thick milkshake, topped with whipped cream and a cherry? Not much, but we reckon this kawaii-cute version in rainbow shades just about tops it.
Feel free to be creative with yarn colours, depending on your favourite treat (mint choc chip, anyone?), and take care when stuffing the milkshake so it doesn’t lose its recognisable shape.

Forever envious of crafty types, Charlotte taught herself to crochet by watching YouTube tutorials.
She lives in Melbourne, Australia and loves nothing more than creating with cotton yarn in pastel shades, sharing her makes on Instagram.
