There was a hat pattern in one of the crochet magazines for December that was a black and white hat with a black and white band around it and I am trying to find this pattern. If anyone has it or knows where I can find it just let me know. |

If Judith Murray will go to the Lion Brand site she can find crochet and knit tube hats,
http://cache.lionbrand.com/patterns/50511.html
I hope its ok that I put the site address. I love this site, I can knit a little but my real love is crochet, and this site has so many nice patterns for the "real" woman . So many sites have patterns for the model type of woman , which most of aren't. Thanks so much for the free patterns your site is wonderful .. Carol |

Hi Dot,
I love this pattern! I just finished it for the first time and it turned out beautifully. I did alter the pattern slightly so the hat would be a little larger and keep rain off my glasses: After row 25, I repeated row 19 to increase diameter slightly and then repeated rows 23 - 25.
Thanks so much!

Hi Judith. I don't have any patterns for tubular hats. I don't knit so I can't help you with how they're made. Hope you find what you're looking for. Happy holidays. |

You're welcome, Carolyn. I'm happy to hear you plan to donate to chemo patients. I think that's the greatest use of my patterns. I'm glad you find them easy to follow. I wish you the best of luck in your charity work. |

Dot, I want to thank you for your website. I feel very blessed because with your patterns, I intend to share these hats with chemo patients. Finally and at long last, the Sassy Hat is finished, however, your pattern is so implicit that I urge all of your faithful readers to adhere to your perfect directions. Bye for now, but I will be back-Carolyn |
