Woolbuddy stuffed animals—and stuffed animal kits—are adorable, quirky characters that will melt your heart.

Founder Jackie Huang designed the first one when his first child was born. Wanting to create a gift that reflected his imaginative work as a 3D animator, Jackie experimented with some leftover felt. From there, he kept on creating different personality-packed creatures out of 100% wool.

Want your Woolbuddy fully finished? No problem. Or, if you want to create your own, there’s a DIY kit with felting needles, instructions, and all the felt you need. It makes a fun bonding project with a child, grandchild, niece, nephew . . . but make sure you’re in charge because the needles are sharp.

A little loop on top is perfect for hanging your Woolbuddy up in a nursery or playroom, or even on the tree. Whether cheerfully displayed or sitting on your lap, these cuddly buddies bring smiles wherever they go.
