Kaiser Permanente needs hats for chemo patients. Although they do not have strict guidelines, we come up with a few to help you.
- Hats may be knit or crochet (chemocaps.org, knots of love)
- Use non-irritating yarn (Malabrigo Rios, Cascade Noble Cotton, Berroco Ultra Wool, Ella Rae Cozy)
- Avoid bulky seams
- Choose a stitch pattern that is dense enough to provide warmth and covering. Avoid lacy stitch patterns
- Don't expose the yarn to strong fragrances or smoke
We are collecting chemo caps throughout the month of April.
