At long last, one chemo cap with a bonus:
What can I say? I'm all about the multitasking, even for hats. This 1920s cloche works with hair and without it, protects curls or conceals the lack of them, and looks stylish whether or not the softer stocking stitch is worn in by a girl who's having treatment.
NOTE: for some reason I have yet to identify and fix, some people are having trouble downloading this pattern. If you turn out to be one of them, just e-mail me and I'll send it to you directly. Thanks!

Do You Have A pattern For The Hat Above WIth Crochet Directions ? Thank's, Dottie
Unfortunately I don't, Dottie :^( I've e-mailed you some notes on the hat that might help you adapt it!
Thank you for such a gorgeous pattern! It's just what I was looking for...something with interest around the eyes. I don't know when I will start chemo, but I'm getting ready now...making several hats so that I don't get bored with any one :-)
Good luck and best wishes, Dee! And I hope all your hats are super comfy and fun to wear.
Thank you for the lovely pattern. I can't wait to make it.
Oerfect! My colleague and friend is beginning chemo. She will look precious in this hat. I will get out my needles. Thank you so much.
I have been looking so long for the perfect
cloche. I think this is it.
I going shopping tomorrow morning for yarn.

Making my friend a cowl, this hat and fingerless mittens
I'm excited to get started on this for a friend who deserves a little style while in the hospital. Her head measures 23 1/2 as a headband measurement. Can I assume that would be a Medium? I can't seem to find a chart that makes the SML aspect clear to me. Thanks for a response and the cute pattern!
Diana, you're so nice to make something for your friend! In the 'Notes' section of the pattern's left column there are size ranges, and I think I would make an L for 23.5". Do a gauge swatch though - if you substitute yarn that is super elastic (the Malabrigo isn't so much) you might get away with an M. Hope your friend's better very soon!
I've always loved the flirty look of the cloche. Thank you. I can't wait to get some wool to work this.
Thank you so much for this pattern. A dear friend of mine just started chemo last week and I've been looking for a cute hat to make for her. This has her personality all over it!
You are a large-headed person's dream designer! Since my pre-teens, finding a hat that fits my 23" skull has been nearly impossible, especially if I'd like a girly-looking hat! Thank so much for writing the patterns sized big enough to begin with! No need to tweak! :-)
I love the look of this pattern! Definitely gonna give this a try. Can this be knitted in the round?
The brim is written as knit flat but the rest of the hat is in the round, yep :^)
I love this, thanks heaps. Did have difficulty printing initially-just need to left click on top of page and move it upward, revealing the "print" box. Jacqui
