Elegant Puzzle

  Recently over the board I was trying to come up with chess puzzles, and managed one that while not difficult I find very amusing/aesthetic .

that:..1. Nb3+Kd32. Nc5+Kd23. Ne4+Kd34. Nf2+Kd25. Nxh3

5. Nxh3 isn't very elegant.

5. Red1+ Ke3 (5...Ke2 6. Rc2+ Ke3 7. Rd3#) 6. Rd3+ Ke2 7. Rc2+ Ke1 8. Rd1#
