This design is named “Taz” (cartoon character), in honor of my Nephew Stephen who had a tattoo of Taz. He never got to see this design but I could feel him aside me as I set to the task.

Sadly he lost his battle, leaving behind his loving wife and young daughter.

Stephen was just 39 years old. He fought with determination in the way of the warrior.

I shall continue making lap robes for cancer survivors and warriors. Given freely during cancer relay fund raisers and through hospices.
