The stylish Minako Cap features a ruching technique that is created by alternating thick and thin yarns in simple garter and stockinette stitches. This pattern is a great way to try different combinations of yarns and play with color and texture. Create a matching set by making the Tomoko Scarf to match!

NOTE: For chemo caps: I would recommend choosing a different yarn for the main part of the cap. The Aslan Guanaco is on the itchy side, so a soft cotton or a fine merino would work better.
