Working in the local hospital, I have to admit I'm in a good spot. Whenever anything is needed as far as handmade pieces go, my folks are really good about letting me know.
On Friday, one of the ladies from the cancer center told me that she had received a request for cancer caps. There's a group of ladies in town here who make them, and some of the patients are requesting more muted colors and a more simplistic shape. There are also a few men in need of caps, and all of the donations that are currently available in the cancer center are overtly feminine.
Well, heck. Hats, I can do! I designed this simplistic stocking cap for The Hubbs a few weeks ago, and it seems to fit the bill perfectly.

Okay, so this isn't particularly manly, I know. But the colors are pretty and fairly muted, so I thought I'd slip it in. |

I'm not sure how they'll feel about the color changes in this and the next one, but I'm willing to take a chance...I didn't have enough of either of these yarns to make a full cap, but they're so soft it would be a shame to let them go to waste. |

Color-change cap #2: I really like this one. |

Plain brown...can't go wrong with plain brown. :) |

And here's a picture of the four I'm donating today. |
