    Jerry Chair pattern/directions?

    Hi, I'm not actually a hiker, but my DS is. He sent me a link to a YouTube video (macEntyre) that included a Jerry Chair. He asked if I can make hime one - I can sew pretty well, but don't want to just jump into the ocean! I've been cruising thru the forum and found lots of discussion of the Jerry Chair. Is this actually for sale anywhere? I checked out Tree to Tree and Molly Mac, but don't see the Jerry Chair either as a product to buy or as a pattern I can use to make DS one. I did find some discussions where MacEntyre made one (from April 2010) and described it, but no actual pattern. I'd prefer to tell DS to buy one, but I'm willing to try to make it. Help, please?

    It's on this page on the Molly Mac Gear web site, listed as one of the Molly Mac Gear UnderQuilts that is "on the shelf" at Tree to Tree Trail Gear.

    Tree to Tree Trail Gear has everything they need to make them, but I do not believe they have stocked them yet.

    I'll ping Darby!

    Try sending a PM to MacEntyre directly. Maybe he can help out since this is his product.
