Wuitusu Handmade Punch Needle Wayuu Bag – Where Texture Meets Tradition

Step into the colorful world of Wuitusu with our Handmade Punch Needle Wayuu Bag, a radiant fusion of texture, tradition, and bold design. Lovingly crafted by the Wayuu artisans of Colombia and Venezuela, each bag is a unique expression of culture — featuring vivid punch needle embroidery that transforms yarn into rich, tactile storytelling.

Every bag is one-of-a-kind, shaped by the artisan's creative vision and rooted in centuries of cultural heritage. These aren’t just bags — they are vibrant legacies you can carry.

With a size range of 9 to 13 inches in diameter and depth, this boho-inspired shoulder bag is roomy enough for your daily essentials while keeping things light, secure, and stylish. The lined interior ensures added durability, making it a reliable companion for city days, coastal escapes, or festive gatherings.

The handwoven straps, adjustable from 32 to 40 inches, are crafted from premium acrylic threads and designed for both comfort and versatility — perfect for wearing as a shoulder or crossbody bag. The straps, like the bag itself, embody the intricate workmanship and vibrant energy of Wayuu artistry.

Each design bursts with colorful punch needle patterns, inspired by the natural beauty of the Guajira Peninsula — think radiant florals, tropical birds, and symbolic geometrics. The raised texture of the punch needle adds a three-dimensional charm that sets this bag apart from anything else.

More than an accessory, your purchase directly supports the Wayuu community. As a Fair Trade LA member, Wuitusu guarantees ethical production, and in collaboration with the Wayuu Taya Foundation, every $50 spent helps feed five Wayuu children.

Whether you’re searching for a bohemian punch needle bag with meaning, a statement gift, or a unique everyday companion, the Wuitusu Wayuu Bag offers unmatched artistry and impact.

Carry color. Carry culture. Carry change — with Wuitusu.

So beautiful!!!

This bag is simply gorgeous!!! So well made. The color is so cool, great for the summer. One thing though, the strap needs to be longer. The strap is very short. I'd definitely, definitely, definitely pay more for a longer strap. Stunning work.
