about:
This little leopard is one of the cutest things we've ever seen. It's great as a kids' toy, but grownups love 'em too.
It's also a great fair-trade product, hand-knit by artisans in rural Kenya. Being 100% handmade, each piece is unique and one-of-a-kind, and comes with a tag signed by the knitter herself.
