Ashley Flanagan, the creator and founder of Yarnies donated this handmade, croched "Anchors Away" purse. Ashley started knitting and crocheting in 2003 and hasn’t stopped since. In 2008, she decided to make her hobby into a business. Since then she has been in Arts and Crafts shows and opened an online store on Etsy.com. Rarely, do I use patterns for hercreations. Therefore, they are often on a whim, custom, and simply fun.
