We are very pleased to introduce our new range of teddy bear patterns, these are traditional bear patterns 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, but if you find it difficult to find these yourself we can supply some from our our (bear making) stock.
We can swap the mohair in the kits with other mohair in our range, including vintage mohair or hand dyed mohair, you just have to tell us and we'll tell you the cost.
All prices are displayed in British Pounds if you would like to find out the approximate equivalent price in your own currency please use the link on the left.
