Breast Cancer Awareness Headband And Slouchy Beanie Hat Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

 Breast Cancer Awareness Headband And Slouchy Beanie Hat
Crochet Pattern
By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs


October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Every year I try to design a New Crochet Pattern
 to bring awareness to Breast Cancer.
I designed This Crochet Pattern in October 2015.
 I decided it was time to retest the crochet pattern, 
 and record a brand new video



I designed the hat in a soft cotton.
 Be sure to use a soft yarn like cotton, or acrylic,
if you are making this for a Chemo patient.
This crochet pattern is a step by step Photo Tutorial
 to help you with the Cable Stitch section of the hat band.
I set the skill at "intermediate" because the cable sections
 can be a little tricky, but it is easy once you practice the 
cable stitch pattern a couple of times.


Other yarns that will work for this pattern
are I Love This Cotton, I Love This yarn and simply soft
And Redheart soft. Any medium (4) weight yarn will
 work for this project.

This Crochet Pattern can also be a headband 
By leaving off the top part of the Slouchy.


I designed this pattern using pink and white for
 Breast Cancer Awareness. It also works for any of the
 other ribbon colors, by changing the colors that
 you make it in.

Cancer Awareness Ribbon With Wings Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

 Cancer Awareness Ribbon With Wings Crochet Pattern
By Sara Sach of  Posh Pooch Designs


As a favor for a Dear Friend I pulled out my Breast Cancer Awareness Ribbon, added some Angel Wings and some
 beads and made a Lovely Ornament.
When a tragedy happens, sometime it is hard to know 
what to say. Giving someone we care about one of these awareness pins or ornaments let's them know we care.
We are thinking of them and are here if they need us. 



 It can also be worn as a pin or added to any hat,
 scarf, bag or sweater.


October is Breast Cancer 
Awareness Month
 


But we need to keep aware of all the Cancers that
 people are fighting on a daily basis. I do believe that all
 of us have been touched by Cancer in some way.
I Don't hate many things, But Cancer is one of the things,
 I do hate.
The beauty of this pattern is that is can be used for
 any of the Awareness Ribbons.


Here is a picture I found on line with many  of the colors
 for the awareness ribbons. I am sure there are more.
 If you do not see one you are looking for, look on line.
