One Up!

This cute pink ball of destruction comes from Nerd Jerk

I'll admit it: I'm a huge nerd. I come from the era of Super Nintendo and honed my hand skills as a child hopping over barrels and running after mushrooms. What better way to celebrate video games than with crochet? Bring your favorite characters to life and they can serve as mascots for your favorite game! I would certainly love to have any of these awesome video-game-inspired crochet pieces to cheer me on (I said I was a nerd, I didn't say I was acutally any good at playing...).

Hit the jump for some digital-meets-crochet goodness. Warning: it's pretty heavy on the old school Nindtendo, so sue me ;)


Keep warm while gaming with this Mario-inspired throw. All my favorites: Coins, mushrooms, ? boxes, goombas, and fire flowers!
