Breast Cancer Awareness Yes I know we have a lot happening BUT still please check yourself. Cheryl Founder Knitted Knockers Australia
No more than ever we as a community need to support and look out for each other. We are all in this together. As we do the highest standard of "duty of care " for the breast cancer survivor we as a organisation are suspending all knitting and kits going out due to the coroavirus until further notice. We will be taking online orders for prostheses from our stock that is package. "Cancer does not stop and we will not stop supporting Breast cancer survivors." Our volunteers have gone into isolation but myself and Sue will be attending to orders on different days. Go to Kniited Knockers Australia click on "online orders". Knitters and volunteers are our VIPs so we want you to stay safe and healthy. Branch meetings have stop but the leaders are going to support your orders. Any concerns email me burwoodn@bigpond.net.au. Cheryl Founder/CEO Knitted Knockers Australia.
NOTICE FOR ALL KNITTERS:
Due to the current situation, we implore that ALL knitters properly sanitise their hands and equipment prior to knitting, and prior to handling knitting needles, materials or packaging. Please do not knit the knitted knockers if you are feeling unwell. In addition, please ensure that any materials or knitting needles is kept away from pets. Knitted Knockers Australia always aims to have the highest standards of hygiene so we can continue to support breast cancer survivors now and well into future. Thank you for your understanding and co-operation.

Hi Ladies,
I work in an aged care facility and would like to know if I can get some residents involved in making some knitted knockers where would I send them to as I’m sure I have some that would be interested so any information you could send me would be great. We have many knitters here and they some would love to get involved in such a great cause, as long as the patterns are not too difficult to follow.
Kind Regards
