PI TOPPER CHEMO CAP by Corey Laflamme
The chemo cap is snug-fitting around the ears and neck, with a little bit of puff to the crown to hint that there may be hair underneath. It's soft, for sensitive skin, and attractive.
Materials Needed: Yarn: 1 ball elann.com Esprit or Esprit Print (98.3% cotton/ 1.7% elastic, 100 yards (relaxed) per 50-gram ball). Needles: Size 4.5mm (US 7) needles – set of dpns and one circular, 16” or 20” long, OR 2 circulars, 24” or longer (I used 2 circulars, then 1 dpn for the edging), or size that creates fabric you like. ================================================= Note: Fixation, a Cascade yarn with elastic, also works well for this project. It takes 1 skein and we will discount it %15 =================================================
All chemo caps are donated to the Tri-Cities Cancer Center. We welcome your participation - our Monday night knitting group is an excellent time to take part in this worthwhile event!
