The Knitting Basket Cake
I
made this cake for my Mother's birthday. She used to knit a lot- and very fast. I remember once she gave me a surprise in the morning with a sweater she finished knitting for me overnight. Amazing lady can no longer knit since Father Time has slowed her down considerably. But this cake pays homage to her wonderful talent.
Amazing! I just love the idea
ReplyDeleteSensational!! Memories of old favourite sweaters too........and funny days trying to learn knitting! Cats playing with the balls....
ReplyDeleteWhat is each part made of?
The yarn is made with fondant. The cake is covered in buttercream icing.
