Just blogging about the new range of organic wool baby toys designed and hand knitted by Kathy Broussart at Cosytots Organics. Cosytots Organics came to life when she was tidying her daughter’s bedrooms and noticed the dust flying up from their neglected synthetic soft toys. She thought to herself “This is not what I want for my child”. She still has the teddy her parents gave her on the day she was born (Kathy is originally from Normandy but has lived in Cornwall for many years) and this was what she wanted for her children and for others.
“Restoring a tradition where teddies were your best friend,
the one you give cuddles to, the one who shares your joy
and dry your tears”
With her mum and sister, she started designing patterns, researching wool and fleece suppliers.
It took a couple of months as she knew how to knit but wanted CE certification and to find the right suppliers. She found two great companies who sell organic wool, one based in Wales and the other one in Cornwall, 20 minutes away from her house. They are British producers and she feels that nowadays it is important to support people who produce quality and care for animals and people. The whole range is now Soil Association Certified and when dyes are used they are organic certified dyes. It’s a true family business and you can be reassured that Kathy wants the best for your children as she does for her own!
