Polynomial Invariants of Links in the Projective Space

The Homflypt and Kauffman skein modules of the projective space are computed. Both are free and generated by some infinite set of links. This set may be chosen to be L_n, where L_n is an arbitrary link consisting of n projective lines for n>0, and L_0 is an affine unknot.
