A Hat For A Cause

A very good friend just let me know that his mom is going to be going through chemotherapy soon. She has breast cancer. I wanted to do something nice for her so I decided to make her a chemo cap. I asked him if that would be ok and he said it would be great since she was already wondering what to use when she started to lose her hair. I found out her favorite color was purple as well, so I used a light purple/lilac shade.
Yarn: Caron Simply Soft
Needles: Size 6 circ and DPNs
The lace edging was an enjoyable knit for me, and the rest went by very quickly. I didn't like the reason I was making this hat, but I hope it brightened her day just a bit.
