Kit - Knit or Crochet, Knitted Knockers
Why KNITTED KNOCKERS, crochet too? There are over 50K mastectomies in the US each year. Prosthetics are expensive, hot and heavy; Knitted Knockers are soft, lightweight and huggable. As of July 2023, 560,000 hand-knit/crochet breast prostheses have been given to women FREE.
ULTRA PIMA FINE (crochet) and ULTRA PIMA (knit) by Cascade Yarns are volunteer favorites because they're 100% pima cotton, don't split, washable, soft and affordable. After many washings (machine washable) they're still soft and comfortable. You can knit or crochet up to 3 Knockers per kit (depending on the size).
Kit includes: Knitted Knocker printed pattern and pdf pattern, 2 Skeins Ultra Pima Fine (recommended for crochet) or 1 Skein of Ultra Pima (recommended for knit) and pink organza project bag.
Double Point Needles Sold Separately US 4 (Ultra Pima Fine) or 5 (Ultra Pima).

What should be used for stuffing the knockers? Cascade’s Ultra Pima is very soft and pleasant to work with.
I’ve wanted to do something to help for a long time. I’m thankful to have found Apple Yarns so I could make even a small difference in the life of someone who has been affected by breast cancer and has had a mastectomy. Thank you for all that you do in making a difference.
It's an easy enough pattern to follow if you remember the Golden rule: trust the pattern. Remember your stitch markers!! The pima yarn was very soft and easy to work with. Thank you for winding it! Two skins seem to be enough to make four knockers (c cup).
