Knitting Titties
Well, if you know me I do love to knit. I’ve looked at lots of patterns. Fun and funky things to give as gifts, wear, or maybe even a stuffed animal, but I can’t say I’ve ever seen a pattern for a breast prosthetic.
These were designed by a breast cancer survivor, and as a cancer survivor myself, with a prosthetic, I know how it is impossible to get anything that looks real. I don’t have a cover on my C-leg (it’s a pretty flashy leg and the cover take away some of the function), but I had a cover on my previous legs before that. I actually was so worried about not having a leg with a cover that my spare leg has a beautiful cover. Even though it looks great, it hardly ever gets used. I am so used to my C-leg now that the cosmetic one only gets pulled out if I absolutely have to. Since the C-leg can’t withstand large amounts of water, my covered leg is good for water balloon fights and washing the car.
I think it’s really great that Beryl Tsang decided to take action and make her own breasts when she couldn’t find something that looked or felt like a real breast. This could open up a whole new market for yarn porn.
