Cake!

[bluehwys]

I made this cake for a friend who collects cake plates. Sometimes she buys fake cakes to display on her plates, so for her birthday I decided to make her a cake! I followed the Wedding Cake Topper pattern in the May/June issue of Crochet Today magazine, and used I Love This Cotton in Aubergine and J&P Coat's Metallic Knit-Cro-Sheen in Gold/Gold. I also added a piece of cardstock to the bottom of the lowest tier. The bottom of that tier was kind of ugly and a bit poufy, and the cake didn't quite sit right because of it. The cardstock on the bottom covered the ugly and helped it sit better.
