Hi all ;
I'm wishing to replace my elderly senile mothers ratty old wollen toque with something else - any brimmed hat would probably not work because she is in bed a lot - so I was thinking of a kerchief - but one that's easy - elasticized ? - rather than needing to be tied up ... Any ideas ? Keep it simple. Thx. Of course I'm going with bright gawdy colours ! :-) John T.
I have made turbans for several cancer patients who have lost their hair during treatment. If you use a soft cotton knit, it will be comfortable as well as launderable, and a lot more stylish than a kerchief. Here are a few patterns:
Thanks. I thought a turban meant a big high thing - not so ! Some of these might work well. John T.
But pay attention. Stretch knits mostly stretch one way and not so much the other. It's important when you're cutting. Polly
There are some hats in Wild Things, too.
Thanks. John T.
