Jayne Cobb Hat

I have been trying to come up with an interesting hat for my grandson.  I started making the Vortex.  Then I tried the Bloody Stupid Johnson.  Neither was right and I unknit both.  I looked at several others and rejected them all.  I pretty much gave up.  On Wednesday I took Gus to the vet.  Since I didn’t want to listen to him crying his eyeballs out the whole time, I put on a podcast.  And there was Susan Dolf talking about the Jayne hat.  Thank you, Susan.  When I got home, I looked up pictures and patterns, made some copies, and dug through my stash.  The next day, this is what I came up with.  If he likes it, I’ll get more appropriate yarn and make it again.  I hate to think what this hat would look like if it ever was washed.

    I love both Pratchett (the Bloody Stupid Johnson character is from Pratchett) AND Jayne. I have long begged my mother to make me a Jayne hat! Maybe I’ll show her your blog and she can be inspired.

      I tried to reply on my old computer, but that didn’t seem to work. I think my son has every book Pratchett has written. I can count on something to read when I go there.
