    I like it. Well done in concept and execution. The bed covers are even useful!

    I don't know about "unitard" but this is definitely a picture of a something-tard.

    And I thought knitting the Coraline sweater was going to be hard.


    I love the shot of him knitting the toe on the Spiderman suit. "Ok...now that I'm done, how do I get out of this thing?!"

    @Meredith Woerner: I'm planning on starting it in a few weeks when I'm done with finals. It definitely looks like a challenge.


    I wish I knew someone else that was doing it. It would make things easier if I had questions along the way.

    There's also this pattern for a knit Wonder Woman bodysuit at Etsy, modelled by its designer.


    Through closed knit site Ravelry (you have to ask for an invite), you can find any number of knit geeky things.

    @MsFeasance: I like the WW outfit, though I'd need it lined and a kickass foundation garment underneath.

    The husband and I each have a Tom Baker scarf (mine's 3/4 scale b/c I'm way shorter than Baker).


    Sadly, my knitting source (Mom) passed away, so I don't have the Jayne hat that I otherwise would.


    Those Twilight mittens be UGLY.

    @geesejuggler: I'd like it longer to cover my ears.


    If you make it much smaller, could you use it as a yarmulke? Because that would be very cool at synagogue.

    You can almost get away with wearing the Jayne hat in public during cold weather. The Cylon one, not so much.
