My name is Fran.

I am a maker of heirloom mohair teddy bears for grown ups under the name Woollen Hearted. My bears are small, quite companions to inspire inner strength and outer courage.

In it’s ethos & process, Woollen Hearted is a reflection of my choice to live an intentionally slow, simple and whole-hearted life, surrounded by natural and the natural world. Thoughtfully hand made from high quality, natural and sustainable materials, my bears are created to bring joy and beauty to everyday life…and designed to last a lifetime.
