Perfume is a very tense period movie, starring Alan Rickman and Dustin Hoffman. It takes place in a fictional 18th Century Paris. I haven't read the book and now I want to! 4 skeins.
I've taken down the thread for the Skull shawl Crochet along. Since no one posted pictures or anything, and I finished mine, I closed it. But, if you're still working on yours, feel free to enter it into the Halloween Stitch Along.
