From the Designer:"Hoooo loves Gosadi?! We do! Gosadi is game changer for pattern designers and makers like me so what better way to celebrate the launch of their program than with an adorable amigurumi owl keychain that you can carry with you at all times! I received these stitch markers from the Gosadi swag bag at the Prime Publishing networking event at h+h Americas. I knew I needed these stitch markers handy at any moment. I created a little crochet owl that is holding on to them with its tiny talons! And with a keychain secured to the top of the owl, I can attach it to my purse or car keys. Cute, convenient, and a conversation starter!"
