The Woman Behind KnittedKnockers org - Short Version

www.knittedknoc...
The inspiring story of the Woman behind KnittedKnockers.org. Her path from tragedy to triumph... to her vision of providing breast cancer survivors in her community and around the world with free Knitted Knockers.
For years this hand crafted, soft, and light weight alternative to a traditional breast prosthetic was only known about by a select few. After several dead-ends trying to find out more about them, how to make them, and how to use them... Barbara made it her mission to create a website that combined all the best research and resources on the topic. That mission has grown to a vision of sharing the Knitted Knocker idea with volunteer knitters, breast cancer survivors, and the medical professionals who treat them. Her dream is to spread the model of regional groups of kindhearted knitters sharing their time and talent to hand craft these beautiful works of art as free gifts of inspiration and compassion for breast cancer survivors everywhere.

This is the coolest idea. I am having immediate Diep Flap- but if I wasn't able to - I would so have a friend make these...and I'm going to shout about this from the roof top...what a GREAT idea...LOVE.

Wonderful. Please share with your doctors about them. We support over 2,000 medical clinics so they can provide them free directly to their patients. They can register under medical at knittedknockers.org. Everything is free of charge! Best wishes on your DIEP procedure. It is an amazing reconstruction method.

I lost a nipple to cancer. I don't need a full knocker, but would love to know if there is a partial one? I am a knitter.

[@knittedknockers7449]

We recommend a full size knocker and remove most of the stuffing. That way it stays put in the bra and doesn't shift as much :-)

[@monaoutten6740]

Is there a crochet version?

[@barbarafromknittedknockers]

Yes. You can find it and a crochet tutorial at knittedknockers.org
