Kinda Homely
All other knitting has come to a glacial pace since I've been asked to knit some caps for a friend's mom who is going through chemo.

It's flattering that, so far, the only two hats that she can wear are ones that I knit for you. One was the pretty silk beanie that I posted a while ago. The other is a ghastly thing that I knit from some crinkly, fun fur type yarn and was originally intended for a chemo cap drive for a children's hospital. The hospital specifically asked for fun fur style caps because the kids love them.

Long story short, eight skeins of yarn appeared for caps including two skeins of Kiddo Solid in black. Black,fuzzy yarn with no body. Hmmm. Now that the hat is done:

Roll Brim Chemo Cap

I realize I should have doubled the yarn to give it some heft. There's just no there, there. But it is soft and, if nothing else, she can sleep in it.
