Old projects : Les Mis keyrings

So this was a knitting project I did when I was in upper sixth. Our school put on Les miserables which I was cast as madam thernardier. I wanted to give my fellow cast members something interesting to remember the show by so I decided to knit in miniature the cast in their garb and put them on keyrings. I based the pattern on an old Jean greenhow snowman one from her christmas book playing and adding in the pieces until they looked right. I made myself two in my two different costumes. I still have them somewhere....

Little Cossette and little Eponine.
 In our cast the guy playing Jean val Jean was a redhead so this is Jean val jean and big cosette.
 Big Eponine, Marius ( he was a blonde) and big cosette.
 Enjourlas, Gaveroche and my friend Tom was another student ( So I made him one)

Javert - complete with coctail stick cane.









 Three of my friends played prostitutes.

 Monsuier Thernardier and  Madame ( Me)
 Both my costumes ( first and second half)
