Hi,
Does anyone have a knitting or crochet pattern to make a beanie or cap please, as I find most of the caps I have bought, or are available are too big or stretch after a couple of wears/washes? Especially for the coming cooler months.........
Thanks,
Morning
Here's a couple of pages you could check out for a start :)
Hope you find something 'clickable' :)

Thanks G n' J,
Almost too many to choose from! I can't wait to go and look for some wool now, and will try and make some for others in my Macmillan unit too.
Love, Jan
Thank you Dreamthief for posting these links.Â
Jjtoo, I have knitted a couple of hats for myself (lovely soft cashmere ones using yarn from the Colourmart2 website) : I have found that to look nice they need to have a bit of slouch in them, but obviously need to stay put as well. The hats need to come down around your face and over your ears.Â
The nicest bought hats that I have so far are from www.hipheadwear.co.uk They are reasonably priced too and also donate to a couple of charities.Â
In the colder weather I found that I needed a bought cotton/viscose beanie plus my knitted hat. The hats in the knots of love site look really nice.Â
Take care, Nicky X
Hi SpicedTea/Nicky,
Those cashmere ones on Colourmart look gorgeous, will keep them in mind after I've used up some tapestry wool I found in my cupboard I'd forgotten about, that will do nicely for a while. I've just bought a hat from hipheadwear too.
Pincus88/Liz - I do have some scarves and wore one today for the first time in 3 weeks, as there is no heat wave where I live. Generally only 18 degrees, but we had 23 today!
Best wishes, Jan xxx

Ooooh! So pleased this has been bumped - fingers are itching and I’ve not had the Docetaxel yet! Thanks so much xxxx
Hi all
just a thought I managed to get a straw visor hat M&S sale ( but other makes are available ) .. no crown . You can then use light scarf over head and visor keeps in place cooler scalp and eyes shaded
