Sizing Knitted Knockers is a bit of an art. This tutorial gives you tips on how to size knockers for distribution. If sending to knittedknockers.org for distribution they will size for you. If in doubt call or email the recipient and ask them to measure the diameter of their bra, subtract ½ ” and knit or crochet to that stuffed size on the pattern. If using sister sizing we recommend not adjusting more than one cup size in either direction.
