Q&A About The Scrub Cap Video

[@jennyleigh63]

I appreciate your teaching style. You are detailed without being patronizing, and it seems you think of everything. Thank you for your generosity in sharing your ideas and patterns.

[@felyluna3239]

Thank you for sharing

[@nitacastle6570]

Never desired to wear a cap until watching your videos and seeing how stylish and practical they can be. Thank you so much for being such an impression to me!!

[@richardaddario7062]

Laura, you think of everything. Thanks for doing this second session on the scrub cap - it's awesome and so are you.

[@brendadorsey2607]

You’re a patient, clear and detailed instructor. I love it, and will be making it today! Thank goodness for your time and instructions!!

[@ellenschram9154]

I made one for my doctor. She took very good care of me when I was in ICU and then in Isolation. I was in hospital for 9 days..so I felt making one for her is perfect! Thank you for the tutorial!

[@happihook1581]

Thank you for this briliant update on pattern variations. I work in the operating room and made your original. It is by far the best hat. Comfortable and contains ALL my hair which is extremely important in surgery. You are generous and an amazing person.

[@sarasorensen2650]

I made one last night, (with a matching mask) for my mother, who has started losing her hair from chemotherapy. She stayed loosing her hair recently and I live two counties away so we can't visit. I had to send it in the mail. I hope she likes it

[@TheHairSpaWigLoftPlainville]

Sara Sorensen She will love it. Instead of a prayer shawl, it’s a prayer accessory. I am sure you were thinking about your mom the whole time you were making this.

[@katieirish5765]

Thank you for this, Laura! I was trying to figure out how to make the Scrub Cap a little smaller for me to wear when I'm in the jacuzzi. This is perfect! And it is so generous of you to allow people to make them and sell. Bless you!

[@christinemann6027]

I love the idea of less waste with the selvedge used in place of elastic! Nice and easy adjustments for size! Thank you for the clear instructions.

[@reneefelts7232]

Love this pattern! I will be making many for my coworkers (nurses, nursing assistants, and anyone in healthcare who wants one)!

[@lynnpasteris4362]

Love this pattern. Can’t wait to give it a try. You did a great job explaining it for us novice sewers. In this crazy time I am trying to do my bit for the nurses in my family. Thank you so much!

[@wannadonna1074]

Thank You!!!! Made these for my cousin who is a nurse sometimes working the Covid unit😷she loves them! Great instructions! Such a pleasant teacher!! 🙏🏾

[@Tristanace38]

I absolutely love this cap! Thank you for this stylish pattern. I'm making some for my daughter who is a nurse and she so appreciates them. I may have found a little short cut for anyone who hates threading things through casings as much as I do. I thread the elastic through the casing before attaching the ties. Then I wiggle the ends of the ties back into the casing after attaching the elastic and stitch everything in place.

[@sharoncrawford4460]

Thank you Laura. I made this cap for myself to keep my hair out of my face while gardening. Absolutely love it except that it tends to fall forward but by making a smaller version I'm hoping it will stay in place! I think I'll even wear it when I'm going out as my hair, without hairdressers at the moment, is completely out of control! Thanks again. Love your tutorials!

[@lw7967]

Oh, Laura! You are just the BEST! Thank you for everything you do! We appreciate the extra help on this. Perfect for my granddaughters! I get pretty excited every time I see you have a video. I always learn something! Stay safe and healthy!

[@SewVeryEasy]

I do put 2 new videos out each Tuesday and Thursday at 2 EST

[@quilthatchery]

Thank you so much....perfect for the RNs in the family, 2 are on the front lines in this pandemic.

[@akarpowicz]

For a chemo cap, could be made with one side flannel for some warmth. Good for cool spring weather? Also linen or rayon? I was thinking about what would feel good next to the skin in different seasons.

[@nancy9478]

Flannel or even some super soft minky would be warm and cozy in cooler weather.

[@jenniferray5330]

Laura, you are so kind. I’ve been watching your videos now for a few years. You are so calm and such a great teacher. Thank you!

[@theoldshedsoapworks]

I have loved your channel for some time now. Thanks for all your knowledge and this wonderful pattern. A great way to use up that stash. I know elastic is hard to find now, but look for fitted sheets and repurpose old ones with good elastic.

[@joycekaminski1943]

Great idea about the elastic...thanks😀

[@doreenlewis9734]

I have made this cap pattern for my coworker in hospital to protect there hairs during this virus pandemic and they LOVE it. Thank you so much for this wonderful and comfortable cap.

[@vickikoersen225]

These caps are so cute and very easy to make. Thank you for showing us them. I have been making them for our hospital staff and the public health nurses on the frontline.

[@ChetsWife3]

Laura, thank you for the clarification of the pattern. I will be making at least one of these if not more for myself and our church’s Fall Bazaar.

[@2thfairy789]

Thank you so much for this pattern, and being so generous and gracious about sharing.

[@chrisnelson9687]

My sister found you, and told me about the cap. I have made four to give to my RN friends. Then I went out a bought a whole bunch more fabric to make more. I haven't cleaned my house in two days because all I wanted to do is sew. This is so much fun, My dogs are not happy with me because I have not given them much attention.

[@jovig6137]

I love this pattern! I have never sewn before but purchased a sewing machine with the intention to start. I wear my head covered for personal reasons but struggle with presentation. This will be a perfect project for me to start my sewing journey. The steps were very straightforward to understand. As a beginner I feel confident I can create this. Thank you for this great video 👏👏👏

[@Ok-gk4wi]

Thank you so much for this simple no pattern cap. My daughter is a nurse in ER & needed one. I have a circuit but that pattern was too much sewing, cutting & complicated for me. You are a life saver. I love how you explain each step very detailed. Made her 3 & it was simple & easy for me. She loved them. Thank u, thank u

[@EmilySchroeder-px5ox]

These are my absolute favorite for wearing around the house. I put my hair in a low bun and then I put the cap over all my hair and wrap the straps around my bun and tie it at the nape of my neck. Holds so well. I just picked up some more fabric to make another for myself before baby comes in 9 weeks. It will definitely come in handy for keeping my hair back. Thank you for such an informed tutorial

[@followthesheppards]

I’m a respiratory therapist who is very new to sewing. I started learning to sew to make masks for family and friends. I’ve been wanting to make scrub caps because we are always working first hand with covid patients. I found that most of the videos here were complicated and had too many different parts to them. Your tutorial was amazing and so simple to follow. I can’t wait to make this!!!! You are a great teacher. Thank you for sharing this tutorial! Stay safe and healthy. 💕

[@kathleengibson8722]

I want to thank you so much for your pattern. I am undergoing chemo at the present time and this is the pattern that is the one that I love..... it is an easy pattern and it looks amazing on !! . . . I use plain fabric for the lining and patterned on top.... the ties are the the lining color.... great contrast !! . . . . Laura.... thanks again for you taking your time to help each and every one of us out on our new Journey to Health and Wellness !! . . . .

[@lanafalana]

Thank you so very much for making this follow up video. I thought maybe I had done something wrong when I sewed my first two caps. I hope to make a couple more because I have material just lying around. I also made the quilt following your shadow effect tutorial; now I just need to figure out how to put on a backing for it. Your videos are fun to watch and informative.

[@pattysherwood7091]

I made 5 of these today. I love them. I actually figured out to tie the ties over the elastic to smooth it if my hair is in a higher bun. I use these as prayer coverings! And since I might pray at any time, I wear something all day. This cap is prettier than just a kerchief. And if I feel very old fashioned, I can tie the ties under my chin. ...and because it’s hard to be perfect, I make my opening for turning on the front seam but at one side , not center, so if my closing is wobbly, it will be on the side of my face by my ear. Thank you so much Laura

[@anntaylor1811]

Thank you for this lovely easy cap pattern, I'm having to wear the horrible disposable ones that are not only really itchy but also make you very static! This is the nicest shape i have found.

[@carriannafreeman9792]

[@heatherhodge5290]

I have a friend who requested a chemo cap for her mom who just recently was diagnosed with colon cancer and I found your video while searching for a tutorial. Your tutorial was by far the nicest and easiest to understand! Thanh you for sharing your expertise. I have made 3 so far with a mix of flannel and cotton for each. I also plan on making more to be able to send into chemo sessions with her mom for any other ladies who may want or need them. Thanks again for sharing your amazing tutorial

Laura It is such a pleasure to watch your videos. You speak clearly and loud enough for you video to be wonderful. I love your no pattern method for scrub caps. I have not made it yet, but can tell from watching it will be just what I need. Thank you so much for sharing with us.

[@andreapike5265]

I made one several days ago for my terrible horrible no good very bad hair days. During this time of sheltering, I'm not going out much and don't see others, so it's nice to take a day off "fixing hair." I would have loved this pattern during my year of chemo. Wigs were often hot, uncomfortable and didn't feel right. My head scarves were rather stylish, but this one is number one. Thank you so much for such a lovely and easy idea. I will be making some for other Cancer patients. We might lack hair for awhile, but we can look great. And when we look great, it impacts how we feel.

When you dye your hair :) You scared me a little with that typo :)

[@irairod5160]

@@modelladel I gasped, too! It took me a second to understand she meant "dye". (BTW--I'm making a bunch of these caps to wear at work, but I will 100% wear one when apply henna or deep condition my hair. I currently wear caps that have elastic all around--like a shower bonnet--but these look like they'll be more comfortable to wear for the 3 hours that I leave the color on my hair.)

[@pamelaarbour3368]

I am really glad I stubled across this pattern. I also saw the orignal a few days ago. My daughter-in-law has been asking me to make some that will hold her hair in back. I think these will be perfect! Thanks for sharing.
