Isimbi Polar Bear

Our Isimbi Polar Bear is new for 2020 and is ready to help you get ready for the holidays. Needle-felted by hand, women working for Handspun Hope in northern Rwanda, create each bear one at a time. Isimbi's red scarf is dyed in a bath of madder root and then knit by hand.

• 100% organic merino wool
• Approximately 6" long x 3" wide x 4" tall
• Hand dyed naturally
• Not intended to be a toy

The purchase of Isimbi and our other felted sculptures help Handspun Hope give life-saving and sustainable employment to young deaf women.

Our sheep receive meticulous 24-hour care so they will continue producing quality fleeces for the ladies working for Handspun Hope.

Handspun Hope is a sustainable artisan brand committed to ethically-sourced materials and minimal environmental impact.
