This is a cake I made for my friend’s baby shower. I have a long way to go in making perfect diaper cakes. This was my first attempt and I was pretty happy with how it came out.

I loved the pattern when I saw it first. But I must admit, I hate the way my sweater has turned out. Somehow one side of the hexagon was much smaller than the other 5. So I feel the sweater is not in proportion. The sleeves are too big compared to body. It was quite easy to crochet though.

I only had 2 skeins of Hobby kids yarn. I could not find more of this anywhere here. So I used some other old yarn, don’t have details of that yarn as it is with me for a long time now, half used . I used up all the yarn.

I just hope this fits the baby.

I loved this pattern when I saw it first time. I wasn’t aware it would take so long for me to finish(due to my laziness).
I felt the blanket would become too small with given instructions. So I increased it. I could not figure out how much yarn would be required. So ran out of the yarn twice and had to order them online twice, lots of money spent on shipping .
