Jemima Jinglebob wishes her Pa would go hunting for bears like the other dads in Buckaroo, but Pa Jinglebob would rather knit. When Not-Nice Nellie and her fearsome bandits hit town Pa surprises everyone by volunteering to be Sheriff. He seems to have met his match when Not-Nice-Nellie pushes the townspeople down a dried out well. That is, until he knits a woollen ladder, and escapes with Jemima in tow. Pa and Jemima set about snatching the bandits loot, luring them into a giant woollen net, knitted by none other than Pa Jinglebob, 'the fastest knitter in the West'.
