Monopoly is a game that has been around for generations. It has become a staple in most households that could either mean a peaceful night in with friends and family or, if you're in my boat, it could mean World War 3 has commenced. Either way, everyone knows about Monopoly but only a few know it to the extent of one fan who received an epic hand-made crocheted blanket made to be an exact replica of the famous board game.

One Twitter user took to the social media platform to show off the hand-made piece as a gift from their mother. The detailing definitely looks spot-on and the game that makes even the most passive person competitive as hell has never looked cozier!
We weren't the only ones wishing for this crocheted beauty either! The Twitter-verse exploded in praise for the thoughtful (and time consuming!) gift:
It’s beautiful! Lovely work and lovely gift you’ll have the rest of your life. I have a crocheted blanket from my Nanny. It’s 32 years old and looks as good today. Merry Christmas. ❤️

Twitter: "That's an awesome gift and looks fantastic!"
Crocheters: "OMG! Think about all those ends to weave in! And where can I find the pattern? And how long did it take? "#ha 🤣😜😂

We've got to admit, we're kind of with the crowd on this one. Looks like it's time for mom to start up her own Etsy shop! She's clearly got a ton of fans!
