Mouse & Sparrow: Crochet Made Calm, Simple & Sustainable
Hi, I’m Claudia — lifelong crocheter, busy mum of three, and founder of Mouse & Sparrow.
I picked up a crochet hook when I was seven, but it wasn’t until becoming a mum that I realised how powerful making something with your hands can be.
In the middle of family life, work, and general chaos, crochet became my calm — a way to reset, create, and feel accomplished, even on the busiest days.
But I also learned something else:
projects don’t need to be long or complicated to bring joy.
Mouse & Sparrow was born from that realisation.
Why I Started Mouse & Sparrow
Like many makers, I wanted crochet to feel:
simple rather than overwhelming
relaxing rather than stressful
achievable within a weekend
and aligned with my values, especially when it comes to the planet
So I began designing beginner-friendly kits that create beautiful home décor, using materials that feel good for your hands and good for the earth.
✨ What We Believe
Crochet Should Feel Accessible
No jargon. No pressure.
Just clear steps, guided learning, and the confidence
that you can finish your project — even if you’ve never crocheted before.
Small Projects Bring Big Joy
Each kit is intentionally designed to be finished in a day or two,
so you get that satisfying “I made this!” moment fast.
Your Home Deserves Handmade
From coaster sets to plant pot covers and calming seasonal pieces, our
kits help you create items you’ll actually use and love.
Making Can Be Sustainable
We choose earth-conscious materials and plastic-free packaging as standard.
