desktop pets wrist rest sewing pattern
Can’t get the dog to stop barking or the cat to stop scratching? We can’t either. That’s why we adore these supercute pets that never need scolding. Lying quietly at the base of your keyboard, this loyal dog or cat wrist rest gives your hands extra support while you type. And with a removable head to rest your hand on while you use the mouse, these two are sure to become your favorite fabric pets. And the best part? No shedding!
