The man they call Jayne…
Here’s the finished Jayne hat!
I used 10.5 US (6.5 mm) needles for the hat and definitely got 3 sts per in for gauge. I loosely followed one of the Firefly hat patterns and cast on 64 stitches. It’s a BIG hat with a circumference of about 21-22″ around. I think this is too big and if I was really really OCD, I might actually rip the hat and re-knit it at 56 or 60 stitches. But I won’t. I also thought about felting it just slightly or trying to block it a teeny bit smaller, but I’m still unsure about that action. I don’t want it to end up being a thick felted fabric. Ugh.
This hat was super fast to knit — I had already cast on before we sat down for the Firefly marathon, but I think I finished it around the fifth episode.
Kaylee: I think it’s the sweetest hat ever.
I also think it is the sweetest hat ever. Looking forward to the movie’s wide release!
That’s just cool. I am a serious sci-fi, but I (gasp) only discovered Firefly in the last couple weeks and am hooked. I didn’t even know there were patterns available!
that hat’s awesome. ma cobb would be proud.
shiny!
serenity in three days!!!!
That’s soooo cool. I love Jayne… He’s so hot.
That’s a great hat! What kind of yarn did you use?
Hi! Just wondering where you got the pattern for the Jayne hat from?
Many thanks!
JAYNE HAT! Is this just a standard hat pattern? I’m one of the few of my friends who can knit, and they all want one ^____^
Moral of the Story is: Jayne in a Fuzzy Hat! Lurve!

ma cobb ROCKS and now so do you, can you give us the pattern?? I adore knitting and firefly! Better believe i’ll be back to visit this site!! AWESOME!
I know this is an old-as-hell post, but I wanted to comment to say that the hat is LOVELY, the yarn is wonderful and the idea to mix the red and yellow to make orange instead of doing an orange batch was excellent. Such a perfect hat! D:
