Rachel John, Extreme Knitting, 1000 Strand Knit

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVRfVEONxJQ&feature=related

I just watched this 6 minute long video about a woman who knitted a mattress out of 1000 strands of yarn.  The first five minutes show the way she set up all the balls/spools of yarn (you can speed through it if you want.)   The colors were so gorgeous I wanted to roll around in all that yarn!  The end was a little disappointing, though, not at all what I expected.  I actually think I could create that mattress myself, if I had the yarn set up the way she did.  It didn't look like she had any more knitting talent than I do.

She did create a beautiful object d' art, however.
