If you live in the Florida Panhandle near Destin and you are making chemo caps or know of a group that does, I have cotton knit fabric you can have. You will need to pick up as there is way too much to mail. I could never afford to mail this fabric out. There are several colors but mostly, royal blue, purple and red. I hate to give it to the Goodwill or SA when I know it would make great caps. Just send me a PM.

Have you thought about calling cancer treatment centers in your area. Usually hospital has groups that are willing to make the chemo caps for patients.

No I haven't. It sounds like a good idea. We have 2 hospitals close by so I will give them a call. I posted it on Craigslist but had no takers.

I belong to the ASG and we make the caps for the cancer society. The hospitals give them out to the patients. One of the sewing stores might know one of the members who would love to have the knit fabric. Wish I was closer.

My group uses 100% cotton for caps. I know there are groups that use the knit fabric. Bless you for donating this knit fabric for such a worthy cause. :thumbup:
