HERE YOU GO...I found the easy to make pattern I sewed. I made 11 so far. 4 youth and 2 adults caps from 1 yard each of 2 fabrics. I made my own ties. They are easy. I made mine over 12 inches long. More like 18 or 20 inches long.

I hope this helps those wanting to sew these. THey weill be so welcome. I'm sure hospitals that treat cancer would be real grateful....or your local American Cancer Society.

Take care and thanks for your interest and comments.

I wish I would have known this when I went through my treatments, I spent a fortune on things to cover my head when I was out in public. I will definitely make some of these and get them to the local hospital for someone. For anyone that has gone through treatment, losing your hair can be as bad or worse than the treatment itself, it was devastating for me. Thanks for sharing !

Thank you for making these caps. A lady brought in a box full into my sister oncologist office. She and I both had cancer about 6 weeks apart. I had a wig but hate it. She got one for herself and one for me. It was wonderful. Your gift is deeply appreciated more than you know. :thumbup:

Sorry to be so late getting back on your note and want to thank you and all others that responded. So glad you were able to get a cap, and wish I'd know you needed one, as I 'd have mailed one your way. I've heard wigs are miserable to deal with.

Hope all is much better for you all. My brother had massive cancer surgery on his bladder, and now has a part of colon serving as the vessel to contain the urine and opening now out to abdomen. He has to cath the area to remove urine a few times a day. They also removed the prostate. It is his third time to get cancer. I've lost family and friends to cancer myself. Awful stuff to deal with.

Again, thanks for writing.
