Knittin' Crap: Picture Show

As I'd previously posted, I was making some costume accessories for my friend Steve Z's steampunk film Adventures in Science. I ended up going, per usual, a little overboard. (OCD: Curse or Blessing? Next on Dr Phil) (Ok, I don't technically have OCD. I prefer to think of it as "highly focused.") I've made 2 shawls, a ladies shoulder cape, 3 ladies purses, and a gentleman's miser's purse, all from vintage turn-of-the-century patterns, except for the last, which I ended up making up myself. You can see them all here, but here are a few highlights:
