Boobs & Dinks – early cancer detection

Crocheted boobs (& dinks) with illustrated instructions to help check for and prevent cancer


As part of the Pink For October contest this week, where the phrase is “self breast exam”, I wanted to bring to your attention these gorgeous products on Etsy. Boobs & Dinks!

Yes, I mentioned them last year, but they’re worth another mention!

Crocheted pieces of our anatomy that come with an illustrated book to teach you how to properly check for breast tumors (or testicular for the guys). This is the gift that says you care! Seriously… The illustrations in the book are really nice and what else says that you care than “Please take care of yourself, I don’t want you to die from cancer.”?

    Kristarella- The world definately needs more crochet. (I also miss cribbage, the card game.)
    I sent you an email using the form on this site, Hope it didn’t get lost in spam. I found you by using “hooks” in Thesis, though not for crochet. kbs

Had a great Saturday at the GKR Karate State Title Had a great Saturday at the GKR Karate State Titles! I was a sub for @jamesxuereb.me in the Blue Flame Dragons thanks to his sprained ankle; we won first round and came fourth overall!
I did a bunch of judging and officiating, which was really good.
I didn’t place in my individual events, but had a very fun final round of kumite (sparring).
