We are very pleased to introduce our new range of teddy bear kits, these are traditional bear kits that we have designed ourselves, as we make more bears in each design we'll add more photos so that you can see how the patterns can be made up in different types of mohair, we hope you like them.
The kits come with complete instructions including drawings to help with the tricky bits, although they are quite straightforward. We include, the mohair, paw pad material, nose thread and boot button eyes, we don't include joints or stuffing as people have their own preferences, please let us know what extra bits you need when you place your order and we will be happy to supply them.
