I suppose they wouldn't like these either?
We use them to teach new mothers ...
Because they didn't grow up learning that breastfeeding is normal ...
And they are often made by women who did ...
Even if it was quite a while ago ...
And they are greatly appreciated around the world ...
And have even been featured on BBC News ...

And the challenge just gets bigger and bigger ... (need some of these at the Breastfeeding Centre!)
And - thankfully, most people get the joke ...
And want to share it with their kids ...
And it really is no laughing matter ...
Because we desparately need to change community attitudes to lactating breasts...

I *need* the pattern for the boobie beanies. My niece is having a bub soon and I desperately want to make her one ...
Hi :)
I made the knitted hats in pic #4 and also in the pic of the mum and her 2 kids all wearing boob hats. I used this hat pattern - http://ooobabyknits.typepad.com/ooo_baby_knits/2004/07/something_old.html and just changed to the areola colour when I thought it was close enough to the top. After I did all the decreases I did a few rounds of icord.
HTH :)
I'm not much of a knitter, but I want to start knitting these! Marvelous post!
