MAKE: First level of Super Mario... scarf-style

It might not look like much yet but cassinator of craftgrrl is attempting to render the entire first level of Super Mario as a scarf. It could be awesome, but if you consider that the section pictured above took two hours and is two hand-widths long, it becomes clear that:

1) this is going to take bloody ages
2) it's going to be so ridiculously long that it'll probably force its creator to consider the question of when a scarf just becomes a really long piece of knitting

For an idea of scale, the author is working off this image. I know I'd give up at about the point pictured above. No, scratch that - one row and I'd be out. I'd probably just be too busy marvelling at the improbability of my suddenly and inexplicably gained ability to knit, which I do not currently posess.

If the thing gets completed gamecraft fans all over with have something to hype about. If not, A+ for effort and inventiveness, eh?
