Halloween pictures

Yes, I'm a bit behind, it's been a busy weekend with Karl's folks here.

4 halloween pictures:

EDIT: By the way, I reprised a costume from a couple years back for when I was sitting and handing out candy. White chemise, red skirt, blue fabric shawl tucked around me and into the skirt with a red-white-and-blue ribbon cockade pinned to it, hair tucked into a white mob cap with a red-white-and-blue ribbon cockade sewn to it, stockings and clogs. And my knitting in my hands. Bonus points to anyone who can identify the character!

I don't remember the character name, but I betcha you were Wossname from Les Miserables, knitting stockings.

Nope, not Les Miserables. Correct language, however. Try again?

Mme. deFarge from A Tale of Two Cities ?

Clarification - correct language for the character, not the work she's in.

Give yourself a gold star!

Someone already said the correct name and book, so I won't chime in.

I think I might have gone for extra points for verisimilitude with random spatters of fake blood. One year my son wanted to be a gruesome doctor-- so it was scrubs and splatter.

I don't think that's your style though!

Were you occasionally cackling "Guillotine, guillotine!" as you knit?

You know I can! Too bad I couldn't lend you my head on a stick!

And why are there no pictures of you, Mme Defarge??

Have you seen History of the World, Part I? It could save you from speaking actual french...
