Beware of the sweater curse!

With celebrities like Julia Roberts, Madonna and Russell Crowe getting down with the knit'n'purl, the age old fiber art of knitting has become the hippest way to pass the time while you generate loads of unwanted scarves for friends and family. But knitting isn't quite as wholesome as your dear old Grannie would have thought. In addition to the bizarre phenomenon of dominatrix-inspired knitting books, the needled hobby also has a rather unusual curse. The so-called sweater curse states that if you lovingly knit a sweater for your significant other, they will break up with you!
Knitters tell me that the sweater curse has a one-in-ten rate of occurrence, but I can't really say if I believe any of this curse-business -- my knitting skills never passed the excessively long scarf period.
