Page 1

Knitted Breast
Double knitting wool - flesh coloured - I ball (choose your flesh
colour!) similar but darker colour -1 ball
Pair of 3 % mm needles/UK size 10
Cast on 71 stitches
*Work st st for 20 rows
21st row: Kl, *K2 tog, K5, rep from * to end
22nd and alternate rows: Purl
23rd row: Kl, *K2 tog, K4, rep from * to end
Continue to decrease in this way and after 3rd decrease change to
darker wool to make the areola.
Continue decreasing until the Kl, *K2 tog, from * to end has been
worked.
Nipple: st st 4 rows (see below for amendments).
Break yarn, thread through rem stitches, draw up and fasten off.
Sew sides together.
In darker wool on the wrong side of work, make a draw-string stitch
around the base of the nipple, draw up and fasten off. If this stitch is
drawn tightly it makes a "Page 3" nipple. Drawing up less tightly
makes a less prominent nipple. Experiment to get the type you want.
(Wish it were this easy in real life!) NB It is good to have a variety of
shapes and sizes, just as women do (very flat, very small/large,
inverted etc), so they can see that all can work!
To complete: crochet a wool circle in matching wool to fit the base of
the breast, or cut some matching fabric. Stitch half the base in place,
stuff the breast with foam or something squishy (old tights or
shoulder pads work well), and stitch remaining part of base. Different
sizes of breast can be made by amending the pattern, and different
firmness achieved by amount of stuffing.
NB colours are not important but flesh colour is more realistic.

I find the crochet base easier to do, as the knitting in the base is tight
with the rapid increasing necessary.
However for those who cannot crochet and would like to knit the base
too:
Cast on 6 stitches.
1st row. Knit
2nd row Kl [ml kl) to end. 11
3rd and every alt row to 15th row Purl
4th row Kl (mlkl) to end [21st)
6th row Kl (mlk2) to end (31 st)
8th row Kl (mlk3) to end (41 st)
10th row Kl (mlk4) to end (51st)
12th row Kl (mlk5) to end (61st)
14* row Kl (mlk6) to end (71 st)
15th row Knit
16th row Knit
For the top continue as previous pattern from *.
Happy knitting!

Bigger ones with chunkier wool, perhaps, patterned ones - the variations could be endless! :-D :-D ;-)

There was a young girl from Devizes
Who had breasts of two different sizes,
One was small,
And no good at all,
The other was big and won prizes!
