The Mountain Owl Bag is a 2-in-1 no-sew crossbody bag and mini tote bag. It is the perfect size for carrying daily essentials on adventures! This functional crochet project uses three colors of yarn and offers endless color combinations. The strap’s length is easily adjustable. The design features textured puff stitches made of double crochet clusters for the owl’s belly, as well as big round eyes, wise eyebrows, and colored wings. It’s the perfect birthday gift or Christmas holiday gift for animal lovers who have a penchant for whimsical, fantasy, cottagecore, and woodland styles!
