Bridget the Bear

Our adorable line of knit animals is made by hand in the Peruvian highlands by a Fair Trade women’s cooperative. Our partners provide the opportunity for artisans from farming communities to generate supplemental income by creating these cute and cuddly dolls. The organization also provides job training and technical support to grow their expertise, empowering the artisans for sustainable work.

Each precious animal has been knit, loomed, and embroidered by hand using locally sourced materials such as cotton and alpaca. After a prototype has been established by our partner’s master weaver and the Meridian development team, they share the pattern with the remote artisans in the Andes mountains. It takes about 2 full days on average to create one animal doll, which the women make using traditional knitting techniques that have been passed down through generations.

We use only the highest quality natural cotton yarns that have been hand-picked with our artisan team in Peru. Each knit animal is created with heirloom quality in mind; These safe and soft lovies will last a lifetime.
