The Jayne Hat Knit-a-Thon was held for the first time at Dragon*Con in 2008. Austin Browncoat Claudia took pledges on how many Jayne hats she could knit during the course of the con. Over the last two years, she’s managed to knit an astonishing 26 hats during Austin Browncoats booth hours, and raised over $4000 for an amazing organization, Kids Need to Read (KNTR).

At this year’s Dragon*Con, Claudia is going to be at it again! For those who will be unable to attend the con, you can make your pledge online here on this website. Join us in cheering Claudia on and see just “how many Jayne hats can be knit at Dragon*Con?”  All proceeds will benefit KNTR.
