Knitters take note
2006-04-25 07:57 pm From the ever-astonishing Make, I bring you a pink, knitted motorcycle and a pink,
knitted tank top cozy. The pom-pom hanging from the muzzle
is a particularly nice touch. There was also a link to this pink-painted
tank in London.
Knitted Titties
2005-10-17 07:23 pmFrom the ever-amazing Boing Boing comes a link to this article by a breast cancer survivor:
When I got home, I put on my new titty and bra and promptly broke into tears. The titty reminded me of raw liver, while the bra resembled the suspension system of my 1995 Volvo.
To cheer myself up, I rummaged through my stash looking for something luxurious to knit up. Then it hit me that I could knit myself a new titty; in fact, I had so much yarn I could knit myself a different titty for every day of the week, month, year!
I finished my first knitted titty an hour before the party and wore it with one of my favorite lacy underwires. When a friend, who had been following the whole titty saga, saw me she remarked, "You really did a great job! Your left breast looks almost as good as the right one -- a bit lumpy but very realistic."
"You know," I replied, "It was my right breast that was removed."
Includes patterns and pictures. You can also get them pre-made at titbits.ca. But if you're a knitter who knows a breast cancer survivor, or vice versa, head on over and start knitting.
