Why "Barbie"

It is true that Barbie's perfect figure is not really representative of most women. However, the female figure glamorized in the fashion doll is still a statement of the symmetry and beauty of the female form. Breast Cancer and its treatment robs women of this symmetry and beauty.

Knit for the Cure through its fashion doll patterns and kits is offering not only a way to celebrate the feminine form, but also an opportunity to contribute to a future when Cancer will no longer take this symmetry and beauty from us.
