Jayne Hat

"A man walks down the street in that hat, people know he's not afraid of anything"

The story: I got a series of messages from a friend saying "Help me!" And a picture of a scary dude in a gas mask.  Weird.  Turns out she was in a knitting emergency and her boyfriend, Mr. Gas Mask, was wearing his ex's poor imitation of a Jayne Hat. Unacceptable.  So this weekend I set off to make him a proper Jayne hat in style.  About 5 rows in I ran out of yellow yarn and decided to make that one a bootleg hat for later and then to make Mr. Gas Mask a real Jayne hat out of different yarn. The results were fun and I ended up loving making Pom poms!

Jayne Hat: Carron yellow and claret red with orange from my stash, 3in pompom

Skimpy Jayne Hat: Lion Brand soft in three colors, 2in pompom
