Coffee cosies are like tea cosies. They keep coffee pots and their contents hot longer. These knitted cosies are made using odd balls of chunky weight yarn, or double up on finer weights (ideal yarns are Rowan Cocoon, Colourscape or British Sheep Breeds; or try using an Aran with a Double knit to aquire the same tension and weight of fabric).

Cancer patients need attractive caps to boost self-esteem after hair loss. ChemoCaps.com is a group of knitters who donate their time by making hand-knit caps for cancer patients in hospital oncology units and hospice. They encourage you to knit one or two or a few chemo caps and donate them to a cancer treatment center in the area where you live. “It’s neighbors helping neighbors one chemo cap at a time and yes it does make a difference!” That’s a quote from their website.
There are at least 7 free patterns you can use to knit the chemo caps. Visit the site to learn more about this worthwhile endeavor and how you can get involved.
