Everything you want to know

Real answers, no fluff.

Everything you'd ask a friend who makes beautiful things by hand.

What exactly does Knittedcuties make?
Knittedcuties is a full handmade studio. The range includes knitted soft toys (like the Sleeping Flamingo), hand-poured scented candles, and handcrafted artisan soaps — plus seasonal and custom pieces. Everything is made by hand, one piece at a time.
Can I request a custom or personalised piece?
Absolutely. Custom orders are welcome and encouraged. Whether you have a specific colour, size, or character in mind, just reach out and we'll talk through what's possible. Most custom pieces are made to order.
How do I pay, and when?
Payment is made directly to Knittedcuties — there's no online checkout on this page. Once you enquire about a piece, we'll confirm availability and discuss payment and collection or delivery from Cape Town.
Are these safe for children and babies?
The knitted toys are made with care and soft materials, making them wonderful keepsakes and gifts. If you need a piece specifically intended for very young children, please mention this when enquiring so we can advise on the most suitable options and materials.
How long does it take to receive my order?
Ready-made pieces can be collected or arranged for delivery quickly. Custom orders typically take a few days to a week depending on complexity and current workload. We'll always give you a clear timeline when you enquire.
Why handmade — what's the difference really?
Every item from Knittedcuties carries a story. Each stitch, each pour, each cut of soap is done by hand — by a single person who genuinely loves what she makes. You're not buying a product off a shelf; you're receiving something that took real time, real skill, and real heart to create. That's something you can feel the moment you hold it.

The maker

The hands behind
every piece.

I started Knittedcuties as a single mother, needing to find a way to provide for my children — and discovering that my love for making things by hand could become something real. That was over 30 years ago.

Today, every knitted toy, every candle, and every bar of soap I make carries that same spirit. I make things because I love it — and because I believe handmade gifts say something mass-produced simply cannot.
