What a treat to knit something quick and lovely for a friend. This chemo cap comes from this pattern, which I found on Ravelry (do you know Ravelry? It's like Facebook for knitting geeks. I wish they had one for sewers). It's knit from Classic Elite's Inca Alpaca in blue dusk and I'm hoping it will be absorbent and itch-free for its wearer. I made the whole thing en route to my parents' last weekend and while lounging during the kids' naptime - maybe 5 hours on the needles. The faux cable is satisfying and easy. I added 10 stitches to my cast-on to accommodate the thinner yarn I chose, and knit until I was out of yarn so that I'd have the tallest cap possible to cover the whole hairline.
