Secretly Nerdy Scarf

I have looked at mosaic crochet in the past, and it never struck my fancy, but recently I got a wild hair to try it. Of course, from a technical standpoint it is very simple, but reading the graphs is a slight learning curve. So I made a dishcloth to be sure I had the charting straight in my head, and then I got nerdy with it.


I’m secretly hoping someone besides me will recognize what this is before I have to say, but that also seems kinda rude. So… It’s a map from an old Atari game called Slot Racers, or I think also Maze. I’m really pleased with how it came out.

I wouldn’t have been able to identify where the pattern came from, but I love how it came out!

I was into different Atari games, so would not have recognized… but it is fabulous! I love the color of the mazes, and I love that it is secretly nerdy!

Pacman and BlackOut (?)(the one with the ball and paddle and blocks) were my Atari “drugs” of choice.

Nice work on your cool scarf!

Thank you! I think for my next project I am going to make a blanket with an actual maze charted out in black and white.

That looks great! I have to admit, while I’m pretty darn nerdy, I wouldn’t have guessed that one!

My sister and I played Combat, Ms Pacman, and Maze Craze like they were going out of style. Which they were… We didn’t get an NES until like a year after the SNES came out. Until then the 2600 stood us in good stead.

It’s awesome!
