When a dear friend was diagnosed with breast cancer this year she asked me if I’d knit a hat for her. I assumed she wanted something extra soft and comforting, since she was about to start chemo, and she did. But she also wanted it to say Fuck Cancer, because, well, fuck cancer.

She also asked for hearts to be added to the design, because this is a hat for when you want to say fuck cancer, but also express your love for the person battling it ♥
