Krissy's Hope Hats

  In June  2004 when Krissy was diagnosed with breast cancer, she started knitting hats and scarves to wear while going through chemotherapy.  She would sit for hours, absorbed in the magnificent colours, and lost herself in the motion of simple knitting and the textures of the yarns.  It became like a meditation, a spiritual healing time.

She describes this as:

“Knitting saturated all of my senses, and took me to a place where time disappeared and my soul sat still - calm and peaceful.”

By the time she recovered from her treatments she had knitted so many hats and scarves that it became a mission for her to provide them for

Those going through a similar situation, a life threatening illness that left people balding with sensitive scalps.

Krissy’s hope hats was born.
