About
Higgys Bears

I have done knitting and some sewing for as long as I can remember, mostly for my family. It was when I was knitting a teddy bear in fluffy wool that my daughter said "Mum, why do you sit for hours and hours knitting a teddy? It must be quicker to make it on a sewing machine." Well, the idea seemed like a good one so I thought I would give it a go. My family bought me all the things I needed for my first bear and off I went - and I haven't stopped yet!!!

In addition to finding Higgys Bears online, you can also meet me in person! I travel across Southern England to participate in craft shows and teddy bear events. So not only can you browse the selection online, but you might also have the chance to see the bears in person, Higgys Bears are always ready for a hug. Come along and chat with me at a show near you.

I will not be adding new bears to my website until 2026
