Crocheted Caps for preemies and adults

January 24th, 2007 · 2 Comments

These are so cute and I would like to make more, but I don’t have a place to give them to.  I did mail these along with adult chemo caps to Texas, but the cost was too much and I really wanted to find a place here in town to give them too.  Haven’t found a place. 

premee hats

I read somewhere that preemie hats should fit a small apple or orange.  I can’t remember where I got these patterns, but the one in the middle I designed.  Nothing fancy, just took another pattern and changed it.

 Here is a load of caps I made for chemo patients.  I think I made 15 of these, in different styles and colors.  I used Simply Soft yarn for most of these.  Foam Lady was purchased from a local beauty shop.   After a few days, I found her on top of my computer desk with an arrow through her head. Thanks to hubby.  *sigh*    I’ll have to find that photo and post it.   :)
