Toto Knits: Organic Goods that Make a Difference

We talk a lot about the importance of organics around here, from clothing to make up. Wouldn’t it be great if you could snag organic products that also made a difference in the lives of the folks who produce them? Toto Knits is doing just that!

Erin Brennan Allan founded Toto Knits to help give single mothers in Kenya the opportunity to support their families. They create organic children’s knits and bags. Each handmade piece is full of whimsy and really reflects how much the women enjoy what they do.

Not only are you getting handmade, organic cotton knitwear, but you’re supporting an individual artisan. Their designs are so precious – I wish they made the animal hoodies in adult sizes!

They just launched an online shop, and to celebrate they’re offering free shipping until Halloween.

Have you run across any clothing or accessory companies like this? I’d love to hear about them in the comments!
