Newport may have been making the gallery rounds for a little while (the batsuit is from 2005), but this is the first I've ever seen of these snuggly superhero uniforms. According to the Greg Kucera Gallery the exhibit

explores different facets of masculine identity and activity. Many of these works come about in response to the question, "How do I know how to be a man?" Some of the pieces examine role models from public arenas (football players, politicians, artists, servicemen, superheroes) while others address more personal ones (husbands, lovers, fathers). Many images are chosen for the activity they depict or the function they serve as either residue of an event or a collectable object. The images of strippers and pin-ups are chosen because they embody a voyeuristic function.

How adorable is this hat? It's even knitted to follow the indents and shape of the robot's head! Seriously, Thea, well done. All of the instructions are on her site, including a pattern and which metallic yarn she used.

Another genre knitting item is popping up all over the internet, Bella's gloves from Twililght. Remember the scene where little Miss B almost gets squashed by a car and the pasty-faced vampire saves her. Well here is the pattern for her gloves from that scene from the site Subliminal Rabbit.

Keep up the amazing craft work, guys — we expect to see cylon hats outnumber the Jayne hats at this year's San Diego Comic Con.
