| Due to a recent diagnosis of breast cancer I was wondering if anyone had any patterns for chemo caps. What better way to fill my time then to make some for me and some to donate. |

I see you are new. I'm sorry to hear about the breast cancer. I think I saw a pattern for a turban in one of the pattern books,McCalls, Simplicity, Butterwick. I think it was in the section where the uniform were listed. Also, I've seen web sites that list patterns for sewing to donate for certain causes. I think most are free. You can downlaod or print it there. Hope this helps. I hope all goes well with your treatments.

Here is the master pattern.. It is so easy... I have made a lot of them.. for cancer patients and also older ladies who live in retirement homes and want to go out and its not time for their hairdo for the week.. They have requested a lot of them.. (surprised me..) here is the link.. http://www.nancysnotions.com/Nancys/assets/html/turban.asp?mscssid=00028661083BE1402FA7AF55E4EECA7 1&Gift=false&GiftID= I have seen several patterns, but this is by far easier and quicker..  It is under her sub heading "Creative Kindness" and then you click on projects and it says "chemo cap turbans".

So sorry to hear about the diagnosis! Best of luck and major healthy vibes go out to you! I got a free pattern from Husqvarna Viking - just went to their website and asked and they mailed it straight away. emermuffin
