It is hard to describe how grateful I was to be able to look presentable within a short time after surgery.  Since then I have organized a small group of volunteers to supply our local doctors with Knitted Knockers.  In 2014, I was recognized by the Susan G Koman Foundation and US Bowling Congress and received national attention for www.knittedknockers.org.   My goal now is to connect volunteer knitters and crocheters with breast cancer survivors everywhere so that everyone has a “Phyllis” in their life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease visit our Facebook page and \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.knittedknockers.org\/\"\u003ewww.knittedknockers.org\u003c\/a\u003e for personal stories and more information.  Our group is easy to find, we have the pink ribbon in the logo and are located in Bellingham WA.  We ship knockers throughout the United States.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBarb Demorest\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe pattern is free.  Mus\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003et complete checkout to receive the free Pattern as a PDF.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Apple Yarns","offers":[{"title":"Knitted Knockers Pattern","offer_id":786673615,"sku":"AY005","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0547\/3537\/products\/logo-knitted-knockers-stacked_61.jpeg?v=1647396737","url":"https:\/\/www.appleyarns.live\/products\/knitted-knockers-pattern","provider":"Apple Yarns - Knitting - Yarn - Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
