## TL;DR

Knitted Knockers posts free soft knitted breast prostheses to anyone who has had breast surgery, made by volunteer knitters.

## Summary

Knitted Knockers are soft, light breast prostheses knitted by volunteers to a published pattern. They can be worn soon after surgery when silicone prostheses are too heavy or the scar is tender, and can be adjusted or fitted with a nipple. The foundation posts them free on request in the US and affiliated groups do the same in other countries; the pattern is free for any knitter.
