Two-panel color comic. Panel 1: A small child asks her mother, 'Hey Mom, whatcha knitting?' The mother, holding knitting needles, replies, 'Oh, this? It's a sweater for bottles. Cute, right?' The child laughs, 'Hahaha!' Panel 2 caption reads 'Later, in the back of a PTA meeting...' The same mother is now drinking from a bottle wrapped in the little knit cozy/sweater she made, disguising it as a cute craft. Beside her sits a bald man in round glasses whose eyes are blanked white in shock, and another woman. The joke: the 'bottle sweater' was a way to covertly drink alcohol at a PTA meeting. Votey aftercomic: a rough black-and-white sketch of the bald glasses man slumped, with handwritten text above reading 'Should've pregamed' — he regrets not drinking beforehand.
