Teddytech Anniversary
‘Time is a sort of river of passing events, and strong is its current. No sooner is a thing brought to sight than it is swept by and another takes its place, and this too will be swept away...’ — Marcus Aurelius, Roman Emperor
How true those words are! Even though we are still in the first part of this year, summer is but a pleasant memory, Easter has come and gone and the autumnal season is upon us.
During our 30th Anniversary year we'll be taking time to reminisce on some special by‐gone moments, swept away by time, but forever etched in our memory.
One important highlight was being appointed as the distributors for Schulte mohair in Southern Africa in 1997. There was great anticipation and excitement when we unpacked our first roll of Schulte mohair. Eunice immediately set to work and created Simon Sailor.
Simon has graciously agreed to come out of retirement to join in the celebrations. And we are delighted to let you know that Simon Sailor is still clothed in the same amazing mohair that was used for him all those years ago!
Available as a very Limited Edition Anniversary kit, you, too, can now add a traditional Simon Sailor to your collection.
