Quixotic Fibers Florida is proud to be a collection point for Knitted Knockers!

Knitted Knockers are special handmade breast prostheses for women who have had breast cancer and undergone mastectomy or lumpectomy. Traditional breast prosthetics can be hot, heavy and sticky. They typically require special bras or camisoles with pockets and can’t be worn for weeks after surgery. Knitted Knockers are soft, comfortable, beautiful and when placed in a regular bra they take the shape and feel of a real breast. They are adjustable, washable and can even be worn while swimming.

Since 2011 the Knitted Knockers organization has distributed over 800,000 knitted and crocheted breasts and still there are more courageous women who need them.

All donations must be knit or crocheted from one the specific patterns provided by the organizations and from one of the approved yarns.  Cascade Ultra Pima Fine Sport is one of the yarns approved for both the knit and the crochet versions.

The Knitted Knockers organization gets the most requests for pairs of neutral colors sizes B and larger.  There is particular need for pairs of light neutral colors in sizes D and DD.

Here are useful links for this wonderful project:

Ultra Pima Fine is a sport weight knitting yarn that is much softer than other cotton yarns, so is perfect to make Knitted Knockers!  It is machine washable for easy care, and Quixotic Fibers has a lot of colors that are perfect to make and donate Knitted Knockers.

Knitting Gauge: 6-6.5 stitches per inch on US 3-4 needles

We hope you will join us in knitting and crocheting knockers for such a worthwhile cause.
