I began this piece not knowing how to knit. I was verbally instructed on the technique without visual aid, then blindfolded and given knitting needles and yarn and a 3 hour window in which to attempt to knit. At the end of the 3 hours my progress was sealed in a black plastic bag and my blindfold was removed. This process was repeated for three consecutive days with increasing durations of 3, 6, and 9 hours. I was not permitted to see my progress from the previous sessions, instead relying on only my memory and the repetition of a set series of movements.
