Chemo Cap help please

[freespirit625]

I just found out a good friends Mom is going thru chemo right now. I do not know anything about Chemo caps but would love a pattern or idea of what yarn to use. Or if you would like to make one and I will send it on to her. Please help or PM me.

I just love the detail of flowers and leaves and pearls on this hat from Annie's Attic - Crochet for the Cure

What yarn should be used? I know nothing about this. Help me please so I can help her.

My best friend's daughter had surgery for a brain tumor and I made her a few caps to wear as her incision healed and her hair grew back.

I used Caron's Simply Soft yarn.

You do not want to use anything that has a rough or coarse feel to it. The Simply Soft washes nicely also.
