Best Years have been specialising in making toys for over 10 years and were the first people to introduce knitted dinosaurs to the world!

Having young children themselves the appeal of knitted and crochet toys was instant as it offered a great alternative to the ubiquitous soft toys found all over the high street.

They are an ethical company and ethical sourcing is at the core of all our products so they found a great factory to make their first knitted toys, and now they have hundreds, still working with the same people they met all those years ago.

This interest in ethical sourcing also led to our 2009 partnership with the Pebble fair trade cooperatives who hand make knitted and crochet toys in rural Bangladesh creating thousands of fairly paid and flexible jobs in the process.
