What a great project this is!  Knitted Knockers provides soft, low-weight knockers for breast cancer patients.   I may even take up knitting again, just to make some knockers!  A project we can all get behind and contribute to, if not knitting then make a donation.  https://youtu.be/BWJKEB_tPdU

And here is an Escondido knitter who has set up her own project, based on the Knitted Knockers original.

"You may not have even noticed the ridges on the end of your toothpick, but they’re not just there for decoration. The grooves made in the thin wood make it easier to break off, after which the end is meant to be laid on the table, with the pointy part sitting on top. This keeps things hygienic by preventing a used toothpick from touching the surface of the table."

I am not sure I believe this.

Here is an online fabric store I have not heard of before.  Lots of unusual prints and some tutorials (see the PIN page).   www.monumentalfabric.com
And check out their list of fabric stores, never heard of some of them either.
