When you choose what garment you're going to pull it apart, remember theese things:
1. Obviously, before you destroy your sweater you should check if someone else wants it.
2. The bigger the yarn is, the easier it is to pull apart.
3. It's harder to pull apart a sweater that has several yarns in it. You should choose a simple sweater with one colour, without patterns.
The sweater on the picture is your ideal!  One-coloured, big yarn, and unloved!
