The Knitty Titty Committee is an effort to help mastectomy patients obtain free or low-cost knitted prostheses instead of the traditional expensive, heavy silicone versions.

Excuse this rough blog, more is coming but this has all happened so fast we’ve had zero time. Please click on the newsletter signup link above to get updates.
Wow, what a great thing y’all are doing! Wish I could join in, but it’s quite hard to find a good yarn shop here in Florida
I hope all is well and I’ll be praying for the amazing things you’re doing!
I am a 73 year old cancer survivor. I have been knitting for many years and would love to participate in this project. Please send a sample pattern either to my email (youpiercedwhat@hotmail.com) or my home 119 chief umptux rd silver creek wa 98585. Thank you for this opportunity to assist. Betty.
It’s great that you want to help out, Betty! A link has recently been posted on the site to a knitted boobie pattern, but I’ll just give it to you right now

Just wanted to share with you… that after I told my family and friends that I was going to start making some titties… I’ve had non-stop requests coming at me from women who have survived breast cancer just in the small town I grew up in. I gave my first pair to their new home yesterday
What a wonderful way to give back!! Thank you for sharing the pattern 
A friend sent me your website. I’m 71 years old and a 4 year survivor who had a bilateral mastectomy. I wish I could have found something like this 4 years ago. Thanks so much for what you are doing.
I had so much fun yesterday making boobies and visiting with new friends…cant wait to come back and do it again but will be making some at home too
