Firefly is one of my favorite TV shows!! I was so excited when someone asked me to make this hat for them. It took much research, but I figured it out, finding many useful resources along the way.
This is the portion of the episode “The Message” where the hat makes it’s appearance.
Also, this hat is sort of cultish. Looking for knitter’s interpretations of this hat yielded thousands of results. One of the most prominent of these was Keiyla’s Blog, where, out of knitterly devotion to accuracy, she breaks down and analyzes the meaning and construction of this hat. It is wonderful. Look at it. I can wait.Firefly
