Teddy Dear by Gepard | Natural Chunky Boucle

Teddy Dear by Gepard is a soft 100% natural chunky boucle yarn. The loops of Gepard Teddy Dear Boucle are nearly closed, making it a delight to knit with, as there is less chance of your needle being caught whilst working with it.

Teddy Dear yarn is perfect for statement-textured garments and accessories (see lots of suggestions under our Pattern Recommendation tab), and, as with other Gepard yarn, it comes in a range of classic and trend colours, so there is something for everyone.

Teddy Dear is a super-bulky 40% superfine alpaca, 60% merino boucle knitting yarn, with each 50g ball holding approximately 75m (82 yards) and knitting to 8-11 stitches over 10cm on 6-10mm needles.

About Gepard Garn

Gepard yarn was established by Sus Gepard in 1989. They are a Danish brand influenced by Scandinavian style and design traditions.

Gepard collaborates with small, family-owned Italian yarn mills with long traditions and extensive knowledge of spinning and dyeing. This knowledge makes them among the premier in Italy, both for trend products and classic yarns.

Sus Gebhard has created an entire universe of knitting where you’ll find not only high-quality yarns but also pattern collections full of inspiration.

The story of Gepard is the story of an artisan and her vision, creativity, and passion for the finest yarns, creating finished products that are both beautiful and durable.
Yarn is never just yarn, never just the soft thread – history, culture and technique are, and have always been, essential to the development of new yarns.

Every fibre has its own personality, and mixing them in a harmonious balance is a unique and exciting challenge that always results in a yarn that is a joy both to knit and to wear.

Throughout the entire production process, Gepard focuses on high-quality products and considers both people and the environment.
