Behind the Bite: The Story of Our Shark Maw Crochet Pouch

by Ethan YUEN 24 Jun 2025

It All Started With a Messy Desk

The idea wasn’t born in a fancy design studio. It was born out of chaos.
One of our team members—let’s call her Amy—was tired of her crochet hooks, stitch markers, and pens constantly rolling off the edge of her desk. She wanted a storage pouch that didn’t just work, but sparked joy. Something practical, sure—but something with a personality.

One day, as Amy reached for a missing stitch marker, she sighed:“Ugh, it’s like my desk is getting eaten alive.”Boom. That was it.

What if the pouch actually looked like it was eating things?

From Sketch to Stitch: Designing the Shark

We wanted the design to be funny, functional, and beginner-friendly. A tall order—but that’s our thing at Kynova.

The first few drafts looked more like sad whales than hungry sharks.
The mouth was either too flat to open or too pointy to close. The teeth? Comically large or just... awkward. But after weeks of adjustments, we found the perfect balance: a slightly grumpy shark with a wide, welcoming maw that doubles as a zipper pouch.

And it’s not just cute—it’s versatile. Whether you use it as a pencil case, yarn pouch, or even a tissue box cover (yes, really), the Shark Maw Pouch is ready to chomp down on your clutter.

Made for Beginners (But Cool Enough for Anyone)

We know how intimidating it can be to start crocheting. That’s why we designed the kit to be:

  • Simple to follow: With a step-by-step video tutorial that doesn’t skip a beat.

  • Comfortable to use: Ergonomic hook, pre-sorted yarn, and clear instructions.

  • Rewarding to finish: You’re not just making another square or coaster. You’re making a shark. With teeth.

We’ve had first-time crocheters tell us this was the first project they ever finished—and they loved it so much, they started crocheting more.

What’s With the Color?

We went with a deep navy blue to balance playfulness with a sense of style. Bright enough to pop, but muted enough to sit on your desk or shelf without screaming “kid’s toy.” And yes, we tested multiple yarn types to make sure the shark would hold its shape and feel nice in your hands.

Real Talk: Why It Matters

At Kynova, we believe that crafting isn’t just about making things. It’s about:

  • Building confidence, one stitch at a time.

  • Letting your personality shine through handmade creations.

  • Finding a few minutes of peace in a chaotic world.

The Shark Maw Pouch might seem like a silly design. But behind those silly teeth is a serious commitment to empowering beginners, creating functional fun, and making the crochet world feel a little more joyful.
