A football scarf carelessly tossed on the floor. Legible just one moment ago, but now reduced to a pile of fabric. How much of what we know, do we know due to chance? And what remains hidden between the folds of the fabric?

For this knitted work, I photographed a football scarf in three different conditions whereby its text and logo are almost legible, but not quite. I translated these photographs into one long knitted strip of fabric.
