One time, I went to therapy with a jumper I had knit. It was really nice - cachemire, an intricate pattern - and then I frogged it (tore it back apart) because I got frustrated. It felt like frogging the jumper was the same as being raped, like being raped "undid" me so that I have to be knit all back together again. Does that make sense?
