Hey, all! It's my Birthday!! Yeah, I'm pretty darn excited and you should be, too. Why? Because I have an awesome virtual party favor for you that you're going to love. Like all my free patterns, they're pretty simple and always cute. Today's free pattern is a crochet Birthday Cake! I can't share an edible cake with you on the internet, but I certainly can show you how I crocheted my own little cake that you can use as well. The cake is small which gives it many uses. You can use it as a present topper/decor much like a bow, crochet several up for actual party favors, make one as a play item for children (tea party anyone?), or as an adorable photo prop.
