Biggest. Pink. Bra. Ever!
Yarn bombers in Austin, Texas had a big project this year for breast cancer awareness. It took many miles of pink yarn, flocks of knitters, and a willing model. Their model was Maria - who wears a size of bra you won't find in any boutique - and made her a custom bra with a really big pink ribbon. See the Biggest. Pink. Bra. Ever.
