My darling mother wants to pick up her knitting needles again (my last memory was a jumper that didnt fit over my head as a 10 yr old!!!) but she wants more than a "boring" blanket sq./scarf and nothing as fiddly as anything for a baby... any pattern suggestions?

Knitted knockers?

I've no idea how easy or hard they'd be to do, but they're for a good cause.

Wizend is a lady here who does some lovely projects, she may have some suggestions.

I have knitted ‘knockers’ for the local hospital - for advisors on breastfeeding to use! I was asked whether I could make some, after already making twiddle muffs for the hospital. Any colour was OK but I did manage to use up some particularly garish pink yarn. With a sort of purply nipple IIRC. 😂
