Chain Mail

Okay! My teacher officially told me I am crazy. I bought a 1mm crochet hook and have been crocheting metallic thread for the chain mail for the knight. I got the idea from the commentary from Monty Python's Holy Grail. Apparently, the chain mail for that film was all just loosely knitted hoods. Also the special features for Laika's Coraline showed the minuscule hand knitted sweaters for the puppets. Combined those two ideas and bam! Miniature knitted chain mail! 

Wish me luck.
