Mvuu (Shona word for hippo) is knitted by hand, by one of the very talented women in the Mutare Remand Prison in Zimbabwe. Many of these women are the sole bread winners for their families. Each knitted toy includes the name and picture of its maker.
Mvuu has many friends available for purchase, Nzou (Elephant), Twza (Giraffe), Chipembere (Rhino), Shumba (Lion) and Mbizi (zebra).
The perfect size for a child to take along on adventures with them or they can find their home on a shelf and add character to any room.
