Join Brenna Eaves of Little Raven Fiber Arts and Furls Crochet for their September 2020 Ami CAL. This month we are making the fun and functional Purrito Pouch. See details and dates below.

It’s perhaps the craziest back to school season on record, so it’s time for something punny, cute, and useful: the Purrito Pouch! This kitty’s got space for plenty of fillings. Use it for snacks, for office supplies, even stow an extra mask, some gloves, and hand sanitizer. This cat’s got you covered.

ABOUT OUR DESIGNER
Brenna Eaves is the one-woman team behind Little Raven Fiber Arts. A self-taught fiber artist with more than 13 years’ experience building things with stitches, she has the type of yarn stash that, if unraveled and tied end to end, would stretch to the moon and back. Though also an accomplished knitter, cross-stitcher, writer, artist, and graphic designer, crochet is her happy place. She lives and works out of Wisconsin.
