Let's let the world know about knitted knockers
.
Knitted Knockers are prosthetic breasts for mastectomy patients. When placed in a bra, these knitted breasts take the shape and feel of a real breast. They are lighter and more comfortable than silicone prosthetic breasts. The knitted fabric breathes and prevents the heat rash experienced by many women wearing the silicone ones. We are now a 501 (c)(3) public charity.

Knitted Knockers Come in All Colors & Sizes
While Knitted Knockers come in all colors and sizes, they all come full of love from the volunteer who made them.
In the Mail....
Knitted Knockers went out Friday to 25 women in California, Arizona, Indiana, New York, North Carolina, New Jersey, Georgia, Texas, Pennsylvania, North Dakota, Maryland, Minnesota, Tennessee, Nebraska, Michigan and Kentucky. We hope these will give each of them a new giggle.
Thanks to all the Knitted Knocker Angels who made them.
Life is good.
Knitted Knockers Received
These knitted knockers were recently received by knittedknockersusa.com from knitters across the USA.
Keep Knitted Knockers Free
Knitted Knockers have been made since 2007 by groups across the USA and around the world.
The name Knitted Knockers was coined by Chesley Flotten from Maine in 2007. She has encouraged and continues to encourage groups to use the name freely. This has allowed a common term (Knitted Knockers) to be used by women recovering from breast cancer to identify a product that could help them recover.
No one should be entitled to own the name "Knitted Knockers".
Knitted Knockers Angels
There are women and men across the USA and around the world that are making Knitted Knockers to donate to groups like knittedknockersusa.com.
These volunteers give their yarn, time and talents when making knitted knockers. Then turn around and give them to total strangers who they will never meet or know. These are made with love and kindness. These volunteers are "Knitted Knockers Angels".
To become a Knitted Knockers Angel make a pair of knitted knockers and donate them to knittedknockersusa.com
Knitted Knockers made by Angels.
Worldwide Movement Continues
Since Knitted Knockers were started by Chesley Flotten in Maine in 2007 it has grown into a worldwide movement. Tens of thousands of Knitted Knockers have been made and given away for free to women recovering from breast cancer.
There is now Knitted Knockers USA, Knitted Knockers UK, Knitted Knockers Australia and Knitted Knockers South Africa. There are plans for a new Knitted Knockers New Zealand coming on-line.
Be part of the movement and change a strangers life for the better.
