My friend Cris asked me to knit a soft hat for her sister who is just starting chemotherapy for breast cancer. Of course I said yes! Just happy to be able to do something positive for her. When I found out that her favorite color was blue, I started stash diving for the softest blue yarn I could find. Turned out to be Sublime baby cashmere silk merino dk in a soft baby blue color. Decided on the Shedir hat as it has cool cables that keep the project interesting and challenging. I have finished the main part of the hat and am beginning the decreases. My goal is to finish the hat by next weekend so that Cris can mail it off to her sister before she loses all of her hair. I am trying to knit good wishes and healing energy into each stitch. I promise to post a pix soon.
