Careful or she's gonna hafta choke a bitch with those bonnet strings....

Now I wanna go caroling. We could get all fancied up in bonnets and crinolines and cravats and top hats and rumble for the best lamp post! You know you wanna.

I mean, this idea just fits perfectly with the way I'm wearing my wristwarmers, which would be positively Dickensian except that they are aubergine PURPLE. Still, hand me my top hat and let's deliver some choral smackdown! (Everyone should have a pair of these things. Jacoby by Berroco Design Team.

actually aubergine is perfect: The Victorians were wild about garish colors and prints.

These look pretty punk, though.

A good motto! I wish I had the chance to do more with steampunk cuz it makes me happy.

Steampunk caroling: that would be awesome. I'd need a theremin in a pretty brass and hardwood case or something, though.

You could crochet a fun-fur edge on the ones you have for caroling purposes and totally channel Helena Bonham Carter.

(damn, now I need a top hat and some spectacles)
