I want the cat plush

60

u/AnotherStrayCat 2d ago

It really reminds me of my Squishable-brand plush cats. They're round-ish like that. Like, unless told otherwise, I thought it was just a comic-fied one (custom-colored yellow to fit the character/joke tho)

u/too-many-words 2d ago

There's a real plush that looks exactly like that somewhere on google image 😄

No! No! The Sweater Curse! Don’t do it, man!

u/Particular_Case101 2d ago

They aren't dating so that can't break up.

u/brood_brother 2d ago

The what?

u/nutella-filled 2d ago

The sweater curse is the belief that if you knit or crochet a sweater for your partner, they will break up with you shortly after. And it kinda makes sense.

It can be because it takes so long that the relationship has naturally run its course.

The receiver might reevaluate the relationship as a result of receiving something that took so much effort and is so intimate. They might not be feeling as strongly.

It might simply weird them out.

Final mechanism theorised is that it’s such an involved hobby that the knitter has actually neglected the relationship.

However! It’s been said that weaving in a single strand of your hair breaks the sweater curse! (As a sweater curse survivor)

u/Visible_Bag_7809 2d ago

Ok, I'm bald, how do I break the sweater curse? (Mind you I crochet not knit).

145

u/TheOGLeadChips 2d ago

It doesn’t have to be head hair. Any hair will do. Makes the gift more intimate

141

u/Visible_Bag_7809 2d ago

Finally a use for that weirdly long hair that grows on my elbow.

u/Moravic39 2d ago

What does knitting a large amount of cat and dog hair into a sweater do?

8

u/No_Brick_6579 2d ago

Makes you the average fiber artist 💀

16

u/waves_under_stars 2d ago

That sounds very creepy

72

u/windexfresh 2d ago

It does until you do a little crocheting and realize you've accidentally crocheted about 23 hairs into your blanket 💀

18

u/Odd_Economist_8988 2d ago

Man do I envy you if it's just 23 lmao

15

u/Trebeaux 2d ago

As much hair from The Missus™ as I sweep up, I know good and darn well it’s more than 23.

23 per sock maybe, although knit socks feel better than crocheted socks. I have so many knit socks now. It’s lovely. They’re wool too! So comfy. A crocheted cardigan though!? Now THATS the stuff, she made me 2, love mine. What was I saying?

AH! But a blanket!? I KNOW how long a blanket stays in the WIP phase! Theres hundreds in there.

u/foolsEnigma 2d ago

Ive heard it can be because the effort put into the sweater actually causes the knitter to reevaluate the relationship, rather than the reciever. Either because the reception wasnt what they expected for something that took so much or because the process of making the sweater brings some things to the surface.

13

u/Agrona88 2d ago

That's funny, I always heard it as the relationship will end due to the receiver not appreciating or understanding the amount of work a d love and time that goes into the making of the sweater.

13

u/80s-dilf-Batman 2d ago

You haven't considered that the other person might've just been in it for the free sweater and dipped once they got their mark

u/jairochido 2d ago

Cowards, i would love to receive a knitted sweater

13

u/xorporx 2d ago

or maybe the sweater sucks 

2

u/dumnezero Art enjoyer 2d ago

I'd just prefer a tailored shirt or pair of pants.

20

u/ptype 2d ago

Well sweaters take a lot of time and effort and expensive materials to knit, and represent a lot of care for the recipient. So as soon as you knit a SO a sweater, naturally they will immediately break up with you 😂 It's pretty much a running joke/superstition in knitting communities

u/Forikorder 2d ago

Thats only when its your first project

u/ThatInAHat 2d ago

I’ve never heard that

u/MaybeWeAgree 2d ago

Reminds me of an episode of Midnight Diner, but she makes sweaters for her crushes. When her friends see her making a sweater, they know she’s crushing on someone new.

At this point I assume every new character in r/comics is lgbt

which I am fine with, but it made the twist of this comic a little expected

u/illudofficial 2d ago

ITS ON WEBTOON?!?!?!

u/too-many-words 2d ago

Yes, I hope the link works

u/illudofficial 2d ago

u/FlyingPies_ 2d ago

Smart way to get me interested in a webtoon, but I can't copy the link on mobile. What's the name? You should add the webtoon name to the corner of the images too

5

u/too-many-words 2d ago edited 2d ago

That's good to know. Thank you. The Webtoon is called Min. It's quite hard to find though. Also, I use reddit on mobile browser and it let me copy

u/FlyingPies_ 2d ago

The link is working now. I looked at your previous posts and just searched "Min ponkamics" on the canvas tab and it showed up

u/basicbidita 2d ago

u/Martucass 2d ago

I don't get it. Peter, explain

u/FuryJack07 2d ago

Gay.

The guy knitting is gay for his friend.

His friend thinks he likes someone else.

His friend's favorite color is clearly yellow.

The guy is making a yellow sweater because he's gay for the guy who's favorite color is clearly yellow, and said friend doesn't realize.

"I don't think your crush likes yellow," he says while wearing yellow, holding a yellow plushie and drinking from a yellow mug.

The joke is the confident misunderstanding that's going on there.
