That is so cool!

I thought this was cool too. It's been a long time since I've done any knitting though. I hope you don't mind if I share the link to my facebook page. One of my facebook friends is very active in our local cancer support group (several of the women that I know have had breast cancer) and I'd like her to see the link.

Go ahead Marie.

Well done Annie, for finding and sharing this link.
My sister had breast cancer, fortunately she responded to all her excellent care and treatments without losing her breasts.
I too will share this with all my friends and family.
Thank-you x

From the Hunstanton group on Facebook:

"Can anyone local let me have all the stamps they get, foreign too, to go towards funding to buy wool for ladies to make bespoke soft, knitted
prosthetic boobs for ladies who have had mastectomies please. These are much lighter, fit better in bras and are more comfortable than silicone ones.

Stamps can be dropped off at my office,


Norfolk Holiday Homes, 68 Westgate, Hunstanton Norfolk PE36 5EL"

I'm sending a packet full today.
