As a play on self fulfilling prophecies, I designed four knitted pockets. Together the pockets contain a message to the self. The text, which is backwards on the outside, is best read when peering into the pockets while wearing the piece. This way the text can be read the right way around. As one moves from pocket to pocket to read the message, the body bends and turns. By the time one has fully read “I’m bending over backwards” one has had to literally bend over backwards.
