⸺ About us
Hi, I'm Olivia.
I'm a veterinary student, an animal lover, and the person behind the idea of the every bag you'll find here. What started as a creative hobby quickly became something bigger. After sharing the bags I was making online, I was overwhelmed by how many people asked to buy one. That's when I realized this could become more than crochet. It could become a way to help animals.
This mission is inspired by my own journey toward becoming a veterinarian. Every bag is handmade by me, with 50% of profit donated to Canadian animal rescues and shelters, helping provide food, medical care, rehabilitation, and safe homes for animals who need it most.

Meet Sherman
No introduction would be complete without Sherman, my French Bulldog, my biggest inspiration, and my very enthusiastic quality control manager. Whether he's supervising from the couch or inspecting yarn (whether I ask him to or not), he's always involved in the process, and he's the reason every donation, no matter the size, feels personal to me.
