We’re Andrea and Alba, and we’re the sisters behind every Loops & Paws plushie.
 
Andrea is 13 and the creative force; she designs every character, chooses the colours, and crochets each plushie entirely by hand. What started as a hobby has turned into a genuine passion: she can turn a ball of yarn into an adorable animal in a few hours, and she’s always sketching new designs in her notebook.
 
Alba is 11 and runs the other half of the business. She takes all the product photos, wraps every order in our signature tissue paper and stickers, writes the thank-you notes, and manages our social media. She’s the reason your parcel looks so lovely when it arrives.

Together, we make a pretty good team. We work from our room at home, surrounded by yarn (so much yarn), safety eyes in every size imaginable, and usually at least one dog trying to steal the stuffing.

We started Loops & Paws because we believe handmade things have a magic that mass-produced toys simply can’t match. When you hold one of our plushies, you’re holding something that took hours of real care to create. Every stitch is deliberate. Every detail matters to us.
 
Safety matters to us too. All our plushies are made with child-safe materials . We use lock-in safety eyes, hypoallergenic polyester stuffing, and yarn tested for harmful substances. Your little ones deserve the safest cuddles.
 
We’re so grateful that you’re here. Every single order means the world to us; it tells us that what we do matters, and that keeps us stitching.”
 
With love and loops, Alba & Andrea
