I have some family members going through Cancer treatment at the moment. One of the things they requested was a stretchy Picc Line cover. I did some research and came up with this design.
It’s a stretchy cover that has an opening for the line to be threaded through. The lower half can then be folded up to cover the line. It is not a medical aid, it helps hold the line in place against the arm and makes it visually look a bit nicer for the patient.

Suitable for stretch knits with spandex/elastane/lycra only. Must have a high degree of stretch in at least 2 directions.
All fabrics used in these samples available for purchase at Pitt Trading.
This pattern was created to help a family member who had a line put in during treatment. I’m offering it for free to anyone it may help as I couldn’t find something suitable during my research.
I am not a doctor or a medical professional. I watched some clips of the covers and did some research and came up with this solution. It is a cover only, do not use it if it inhibits your line or treatment in any way.
If in doubt make one and show your healthcare professional before using.
Hi Susan
My husband has a picc line and I was hoping to make your pattern up for him. But when I click on the “Free Picc line cover sewing pattern,” I just get put on this page again.
Thanks,

Hi again. Sorry for the trouble. I live in the US, and your shop page wants to charge me shipping. Is it a PDF or paper pattern? Thanks! Susan

should be fixed now, sorry about the troubles
Thanks — I’ve now got the pattern. I’ll let you know how mine turns out!
It is not sized correctly. The test box is off. Is there a US version?
Hi, try printing it at 100% or actual size and you should find the sizing box is correct.
