Hi my name is Danielle and my mom has breast cancer… She had a mastectomy in October and a few weeks later we got the news that the cancer has grown to stage 4 bone cancer throughout her body! My mom a few weeks ago finally got a prosthetic to put in her bra and she hates it not only is it heavy but it’s hot and uncomfortable for her. I would love to get one of these knitted knockers for her because she has been very depressed lately and I think this will cheer her up! Thank u for creating these knitted knockers it is an amazing concept!! Hope to hear from u soon.
The only reason I have any boobs at all is thanks to Knitted Knockers! I decided against reconstruction (for better or worse) at the time of my double mastectomy, but because of lots of pain and discomfort (due to nerve cells regenerating and other issues), I am unable to wear typical forms. I spent a couple of years not wearing anything but my body image deteriorated rapidly and I hated not being able to wear a lot of my clothes, especially to work. Then along came my Knitted Knockers (which I heard about via Face Book). I am up to wearing them 4 days a week for the majority of the day (“Casual Friday” has a whole new meaning now) and I can wear all my clothes again!!! So thank-you from the bottom of my heart to everyone involved in anything Knitted Knockers because you are truly impacting the lives of many survivors. 🙂
I was thrilled to see these. I had a bilateral mastectomy and did not want to reconstruct using implants and could not get a doctor to agree to reconstruct using my own tissue and building very small breasts. I didn’t even mind if it were flat. I just didn’t want to be sunk in on one side. I was left with a very uneven looking chest wall. My son is now 14 and is having problems with kids at school saying his mom is a man because my hair is short and I have no breasts. I do have a pair of prosthetic breasts but they are hot, heavy and do not feel natural so I do not use them. Most days I don’t mind being flat because I am alive. But there are some times where it would be nice to have a little shape. Your knitted knockers might just be the answer.
Heard about Knitted Knockers at my breast cancer support group in Olympia on 2/4/2014. Very anxious to get mine as will be so nice to not have the heavy prosthesis.
I was diagnosed with breast cancer in May of 2013. I was then found to have the BRCA2 gene mutation. I lost both my parents to cancer, so I chose to have a bilateral mastectomy. I did not want any reconstruction, the prosthetics are too uncomfortable. I have been using sports bras and adding some extra pads into them. They just don’t look right. I would love to try the knitted knockers! I would also like to say thank you wonderful women for doing this! It means so much to me, I really thought I would just have to keep struggling along with my way. Can’t wait to try my knitted ones! Many, many thanks to all!! 2/4/15 Arkansas
When I visited my doctor for 3 month check up I was telling him how heavy the silicone prosthetics and expensive and he told me to contact knitters knockers.
Hello! I would absolutely love a pink pair of knitted knockers. I was diagnosed with stage 3 triple negative breast cancer at the age of 23. After a mastectomy, chemo, and radiation I’m proud to say I’m now 27 and 3.5 years out from diagnosis. Dealing with my diagnosis and now “life after cancer” at such a young age has had it’s challenges. Putting a pink pair on would give me that extra boost of confidence needed on most days to feel, well, like I’m enough. The service you provide is one that is in a class all it’s own. Thank you for so selflessly committing your hearts, your talents, your time, and your stories to help fill the void so many women are trying tirelessly to themselves. May God bless each and every one of you in the most profound way!
I’m excited to try the knitted knockers, I’ve got the heavy, uncomfortable prosthetics but have chosen not to wear them because they are so uncomfortable. I still want that “girly” look but being so con-cave it is hard. I’m so excited, THANK YOU for giving me hope again.
I work as a Patient Navigator with women going through treatment for breast cancer. I am thrilled to know about this option for patients. I am requesting just one,”Knocker” for education purposes for patients, so I would be greateful with any size or color you send. Thank you.
These are so wonderful and after reading so many testimonials I would love a pair. I hate my silicone pair (too hot and heavy) and my foamies are losing their shape. Thank you so much for what you are doing to make us feel so special and embrace our new normal!
Thank you so much for all you do, I received mine in the mail today!    Made me cry tears of joy that there are really still some caring people left in this world, the card is what got me! THANK YOU !
