Booyah! Who just finished the first stage of her very first Jayne hat (and second knitting project ever, after the doll blanket she did at age 9)? Oh, that would be me:



Man walks down the street in a hat like that, you know he's not afraid of anything.

Still need to do the earflaps and make the pompom. But not bad for a day and half's work, when I only learned to knit yesterday! Many, many thanks to Cathy, the nice Browncoat who invited me over last night and patiently walked me through the whole thing. :-D

You Rock! =D
I need to learn how to make those too. Maybe I can get Judy to teach me how to knit...

:-D Thanks! Totally get her to teach you, they are so much fun to make! I used this girl's pattern to make the hat: http://dryope.typepad.com/superfly/jayne_cobb_hat/

As many as possible by Comic-Con. They're raffle prizes for the Serenity fan table's charity fundraiser.

Wheeeeee!! GO YOU OMG!! *dances with knitting gleeee* Looks very nice! I'd never have guessed it was (almost) your first project. :)

There is a geek knitting community at sg1knitters, but it has been rather quiet lately. Come join! Play! Wheeeeee!

Actually - I'm a big yarn arts fan too - mind if I join that community?

Please!! We've been so quiet there. I'll have to come up with something to say... :)
