THIS SWEATER WAS HANDKNIT OVER THE COURSE OF A YEAR AND 2 MONTHS. ITS CREATION WAS PROMPTED BY A WIKIPEDIA ARTICLE (SHOWN, PRINTED AND FRAMED) ABOUT THE "SWEATER CURSE", AN URBAN LEGEND THAT STATES THAT IF ONE KNITS A SWEATER FOR A LOVED ONE, THE LOVED ONE WILL LEAVE THEM. THE ARTICLE PROVIDES VARIOUS THEORIES REGARDING WHY PEOPLE BREAK UP WITH THEIR SIGNIFICANT OTHER UPON RECIEVING A HANDKNIT SWEATER. BEING SINGLE AT THE TIME OF STARTING THE SWEATER, THIS PROJECT WAS INTENDED TO SEE IF THE SWEATER CURSE WOULD AFFECT MY RELATIONSHIP WITH MYSELF.
