This will probably be the last chemo hat for a while. I need to get started on some Christmas presents and that will keep me busy for a while. Also I want to finish the charity blanket. I used the book Beautiful Knitting Patterns by Gisela Klopper for the stitch patterns. If you have any questions or notice any mistakes please leave a comment.

Can't copy pattern. Have been able to copy others without any problem. Love the "HAT"
Thank you! Thank you! My mom starts chemo tomorrow and will be losing her hair in time for a hot Texas summer. I have been searching for a summer hat that I can make for her.
