Unless she has an especially large head, I would use the smaller size pattern. Did you receive the pattern from me yet? If not, send me your email address by PM please. Have sent so many and with our computer down for the past two weeks, some fell through the cracks I fear. Hoping for a good outcome for your god-dau.
When I was in high school in 1963-64, our family hosted an exchange student from England. She was from Rolleston-on-Dove, Staffordshire. Sadly, she is now deceased. She left a daughter who was named after me, tho' we have had no contact.

I have it saved in a file and it was a free pattern at my LFS (local fabric shop), so no restrictions on copying or sharing. Quick and easy to make, about 15-20 minutes each. PM me your email if you would like a copy. Seems I know too many friends who have needed these recently! :(

I would love the pattern. My special friend is just starting 12wks of chemo and will loose her beautiful hair.I will pm you Thanks

I have PM'd you about this pattern. They are adorable. I have even been to Kalamazoo although it was many years ago. It is really great that you are offering it to us.
