Donating knitted headscarves to cancer charit

[TheSilveryPussycat]

Anyone know if there's a charity I can donate knitted headscarves to?

A quick google didn't supply an answer.

You could ask in the Wooly Hugs topic www.mumsnet.com/Talk/woolly_hugs, I know some of their recipients are cancer charities - or you could knit for them directly!

Don't know about scarfs but there is a group of lovely ladies who call themselves the knitted knockers, a quick google should find them (I don't want to risk it as I'm at work) LOL. they knit/crochet breast forms for women who have had to have a mastectomy through cancer and they always need people who can help.

MN Wooly Hugs also became a registered charity a few years ago, so here is their own website www.woollyhugs.org

You'd have to be careful about the material used as headscarves on a bald head ca be very itchy

I knew about wooly hugs and knitted knockers, but have a super easy triangular scarf pattern. Thanks all

I would say not knitted headscarf, I had cancer. The wool would have drove me mad with itch.

hmm, don;t want to spoil your nice idea, but knitted headscarf on bare skin, would be horrible.

Also, who wears a knitted headscarf?
scarf, yes, headscarf, no

If you used an acrylic yarn it shouldn’t be itchy. No idea about head scarfs though.

Knit for Peace might be one to try?

Yes, also they're sort of see through.They are from Mon Tricot 1975! and can be tied with French stylishness. Presents for friends it is, although will try to knit something for one of the good causes you have mentioned
