Raccoon Mario Rug!

Done by crocheting granny squares and excel spreadsheets, someone’s boyfriend out there just got a funky rug.

Here it is from the creator herself:

“Hello everyone!  This is the first project I’ve posted on Craftster (he’s on my Ravelry page now).  It is a 7x7ft 8-bit Raccoon Mario rug!  This is my bf’s birthday present  Smiley He’s made of 386 granny squares, each one representing 1 pixel (3.5″ each) that makes up Raccoon Mario.  I learned to crochet in February by watching youtube videos and recently watched another video for granny squares and got started on this project right away.  I had originally thought that it would take me over 1 month to complete if I made about 10 granny squares per day.” -enemyairship

Definitely a love rug. Which reminds me of:

“Wipe your feet really good on the rhythm rug
If you feel the urge to freak, do the jitterbug!”

What a beautiful gift! To music and rugs. To crafting something with your own two hands. To Racoon Mario…

Have a great day
