This isn't really a blog post but a request of my readers/followers:
What is your favorite chemo cap pattern for men?
I am looking for something, knit or crochet, that works up relatively quickly and would be a perfect sleep hat for a man. If you have a favorite pattern, link me in the comments (if its available online, ravelry included) OR if it is a paid pattern, just leave me enough info (pattern name and publication) to find it.
I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks!

This hat is one of my favorite men's hats to knit: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/a-hat-fit-for-a-boyfriend. Works up quickly and looks great, too!
I have only made a beanie for my husband but I didn't use a pattern. I started off with ch2, 6 hdc in 2nd ch hook (carry on marking each round), 6 hdc in, then next is *1hdc, 1hdc inc* x 6. Each row you add another hdc so the next round would be *2hdc, 1 hdc inc* x 6. Until you reach *10hdc, 1 hdc inc* then you just do hdc around until you reach the required length. I changed colour on a couple of rows to make it look more exiting. I've had a look and found some other free patterns:

This can be made for men or women and the neat part is that the purl stitches are on the outside and the knit stitches are on the inside so it's nice and smooth and soft against the head.
