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.

Featured Designer - Elk Studio's Southern Comfort Hat

I Loved making this crochet hat pattern
and loved the cross over stitch.
I had never done that stitch before
 and it really gives it a cool look.

The Pattern is designed By
Kathy Lashley of  
ELK Studio 
Handcrafted Crochet Designs

Here is her Blog:
The pattern is well written 
and easy to follow.
I Love the Red and Beige Hat
 featured on her blog.

I used Vanna's Choice yarn.
Its soft and light.

I was going for a beachy look.
I think I nailed it!
I Love it!


The hat is a perfect fit and
 I already love wearing it.

This hat is designed for Chemo patients.
 This cause is dear to my heart 
as my mom passed away from Breast Cancer 
last July. She went through Chemo, 
and lost all her hair.

Sun hats are very important for 
Chemo patients
 as they are not used to the sun
 on their bald heads, and burn easily. 

But also, All it takes is a breeze
 to blow in and their head gets cold.

My mom would get cold sitting 
in an air conditioned 
room in the summer.


To find out more about
Just click the link.

They have many crochet hats to make, 
as well as videos of hats to make.
I made many of these for my mom.
