The Gay Sweater project is wooly, weird, and pretty wonderful. Created by the Canadian Centre for Gender & Sexual Diversity, the 'Gay Sweater' is made from the hair of queer people, making it a literal ‘gay sweater.’

“The Gay Sweater project teaches us that words like ‘gay’ shouldn’t be used to describe anything negative,” according to the project.

The Canadian Centre for Gender & Sexual Diversity seeks to eliminate bullying, homophobia, transphobia, and other forms of discrimination in schools and youth communities.
