iso of a pattern for bandana style "hats" for cancer
#1

Hi everyone. I just started chemo on tuesday for breast cancer and my friend and I have been looking on line for free patterns for some hats to keep my head covered and protected for the summer. I want something like a bandana kerchief style to let air in and just basically keep my head covered and cool. Saw a pattern at Joann's by McCalls but have gone THREE times and it is never in stock! i know it should be pretty simple but we cannot find anything that is just a simple tie type. Does anyone know of a link of where i could get a pretty basic pattern for this. thanks!

thanks thimblebug6000 - i like the style but i may modify it to where it doesn't hang down so long in back. but it is very close to what i was looking for! goodness knows i will have time to play around with patterns! going to be a long six months i think!

If you can PM me with a pattern #, our local JoAnn's is having patterns on sale and I would be happy to see if I can get it for you and mail it to you. I think the sale runs from April 12 to 18th. Please let me know if I can help.

my bf is on her way to JoAnn's in a nearby town to see if they have it there. They were on sale this weekend here for 3/$5 which is why i really wanted to get it. I cannot believe the price of tissue patterns anymore. We went to a JoAnn's in a larger metro area (if you want to call it that - LOL) but tonight she is going to a very small town. so we are hoping they have it there.

Is it the 4116? I'm thinking the navy blue one might be close?

Some free patterns also, as an alternative. The 4th one down is a simple tie but they have several styles. I have (apparently) a small head and usually cannot buy hats that fit. Several could be worn by anyone!!

I swear I'll stop but this one is so cute as an alternative! I wish hats would come back in style!!
