Beth Fisher replied to Veronica Vatter's discussion Chemo Hats (Knit or crochet)"I found a pattern that used Lion Thick and Quick yarn.

Vanita Berry replied to Veronica Vatter's discussion Chemo Hats (Knit or crochet)"Try using cotton yarn like Sugar n' Cream, which you can buy at Walmart, and a child's size pattern.

Veronica Vatter replied to Melissa Burnett's discussion Portable Projects"My favorite project to knit on the go is a hat.
