Questions for Me
Thank you for answering my previous questions…other than your immediate family members, who else do you find knit-worthy in your circle of friends and acquaintances?

Hi Kim. I was wondering if you have a pattern written up for your chemo cap? As I mentioned in the show comments today, I’ve been looking for a nice simple pattern for chemo caps using sock yarn. Thanks for your help. I hope you have a wonderful day. Blessings, Betsy
