TikToker Jenna Bates, AKA woolymcwoolface has made an ungodly creation unlike anything I could have ever imagined. She has literally, from scratch, knitted a gigantic, to-scale wooly Thanos, from Avengers.

Jenna Bates has been working on the project since May this year, and has been slowly knitting Thanos piece-by-piece since then. 

She posted the final reveal on her TikTok on September 28
