I’ve presented the baby hair hat before, for adults who feel that the crocheted dreadlocks are too wild there’s the knitted wig ;-)

Additionally you find at Head Huggers many instructions for hats meant for prople who lost their hair due to an illness. She writes there: “My plan is to distribute the caps to hospitals, oncology offices, hospices, etc. so that they can more readily be available to those who have lost their hair due to chemotherapy, etc.”

If this potholder really only need two hours to complete it is the perfect last minute gift :)
But if you have to make your own loom before it could take a little more time ;-)
By the way: there are more potholders here in the blog and some of these are also quickly made :)
