PSA: Titties for the trans* women
Sep. 1st, 2013 05:53 pmPSA if you are a trans* woman (or whatever wording/identification you prefer) who has yet to start HRT, I may be able to knit you a pair of titties/breasts/[word here] free of charge except for materials/postage.
Things:
Feel free to also signal boost!
Here's one of a pair I made for a friend of mine! She liked them very much and wore them until the hormones kicked in:

Things:
- Process might be slow (think: maybe months) depending on how many requests I get and/or I might have to limit how many I do because hands.
- I would use this pattern from knitty, which actually says I cannot legally charge you. But I wouldn't want to anyway, because yay righting wrongs like not having the right body parts that combat brainweasels.
- We could consult on yarn color/fiber/etc., but one thing is that if you're going to be wearing it and I'm going to be knitting it, it should be:
- washable
- soft
- something you are not allergic to
- won't make you all sweaty (i.e. preferably not synthetic unless that's the only option)
- ideally, something that won't make my hands scream (i.e. plant fibers not preferred, but possible)
- pretty/visually appealing
- We should also talk about what cup size you want, and what filling you want (rice = not machine washable, or fiber fill with or without a stone weight, stone = not TSA approved).
Feel free to also signal boost!
