Otters are found right across the world on every continent except for Australia & Antarctica. They were once hunted for their fur, pushing them nearly to extinction. They are protected nowadays, but are still threatened by pollution & habitat loss. Otters had virtually disappeared from England, but thanks so huge conservation efforts to reduce pollution in our water ways, they are coming back in greater numbers.
These strong swimmers have waterproof fur which keeps them warm. Their ears & nostrils close which is very handy for keeping the water out. They are talented hunters & have a unique way of opening shellfish, floating on their backs and using a rock to smash open the shell. Otters love to play & splash about in the river - spotting an otter is truly a treat for any wildlife lover.
Eco-friendly jumper made from EVE Vegan approved 85% Organic Ring-Spun Combed Cotton & 15% Recycled Polyester. Organic Cotton has a much lower environmental impact than conventionally grown Cotton. This is because it's cultivated using less water with no harmful pesticides. This is better for the planet, the farmers and your skin.

Each little Blue Panda design is conceived, sketched & brought to life by our in-house artist Steve.
"I’ve always loved animals & have been drawing them as far back as I can recall, dragging wildlife encyclopedias around with me as a small child.
Rediscovering this passion as an adult brings me full circle & I love the fact that I’m able to keep the entire process in-house.
From a simple sketch I can bring the animal to life with the use of stitch types, angles & thread colour choices - embroidery digitizing is an art in itself & I absolutely love doing this part of the process.
With each design I try to capture the spirit of the animal and I hope you can feel this too."
