[Nfb-krafters-korner] chemo caps

[Lisamaria Martinez, NOMC]

I looked up chemo caps on the Lion Brand app while sitting on my couch here. All of the yarns except for one are discontinued but they suggest fun fur, fancy fur and microscan. The first is still in stock and I have use that for making other crafts. There is another kind of yarn that I have used to make hats and it is very soft and wooly looking. I made a hat for my son and every time he wears it he gets so many comments about it because it looks very neat visually, very texture. I have to have my husband tell me what brand it is because I can't read the text. I'll get back to you soon.
