The 67 Blankets folks of South Africa are at it again… if you recall, in 2015 they set the Guinness World Record for Largest Crochet Blanket and now they’re doing it again with the “Largest Portrait Blanket in the World, depicting the face of our beloved father of our nation, Nelson Mandela.”

The “Massive Mandela Masterpiece will cover an entire rugby field and the face of Madiba will be so big, you will only see the full image from the sky and outer space!”
