Downy wants to be a woodworker when she grows up. She's taken some courses and practices as much as she can and she's not bad, if she does say so herself.

Downy is the largest of our friends. She is the perfect size for full body hugs from young children, but also offers full sized comfort to older kids looking for someone to hug away the day's troubles.

For younger children, moms and dads appreciate that her movable arms and legs encourage children to use their imagination for creative play. The wool blend from Salt Spring Island used to stuff Downy adds an extra weight to her body and actually warms and retains heat as you hug and cuddle her. Although large, Downy fits comfortably into small hands and is light enough to be easily carried into any adventure - on car trips, play dates or visits to the library - or to be held and snuggled against little chests as they fall asleep.

We're pleased to introduce our new Keepsake Friends Category of Stuffed Animals. Knit with only the most luxurious and natural high end yarns and stuffed with a wool blend milled on Salt Spring Island, these animals are the cream of the crop.

All of our stuffed animal friends make wonderful baby shower or Christening gifts either on their own or added to a gift basket. They're a great addition to a nursery or in a stuffed animal collection. They're fabulous as birthday and holiday gifts for children of all ages. They also make a wonderful big sister or brother gift for when mom is having a new baby and someone might be feeling a little bit left out.

Downy is hand knit by one of the 2 sisters in either Vancouver or Salt Spring Island. She comes from a smoke and pet free home and is treated with love, care and attention to detail throughout the creation process.

Downy measures 54 cm (21 inches), from the top of her head to her toes. Her ears add an additional 28cm (11 inches). Downy is knit from a blend of alpaca and wool. Her eyes, nose and smile are 100% wool. She's stuffed with a wool blend from Salt Spring Island.

Spot clean (rub with the grain of the stitches) or very occasionally, gently hand wash with wool friendly soap. Make sure to rinse thoroughly, and dry completely - preferable outside on a sunny day. Please do not place in washer or dryer.

Please note that Downy will be knit to order, some minor variations from the photos are to be expected.

Downy is an original Two Sisters Teddy Bear Co. pattern.
