🎒 Wuitusu Large Crochet Mochila Backpack – Bold, Bohemian, and Beautifully Handmade

Step into a world of vibrant expression and time-honored tradition with the Wuitusu Large Crochet Mochila Backpack — a stunning embodiment of boho style, artisan skill, and meaningful cultural heritage. Handcrafted by the Wayuu women of Colombia and Venezuela, each piece is a handmade crochet bag that carries both function and soul.

Woven entirely from premium acrylic yarn, this colorful crochet handbag is both durable and lightweight — ideal for everyday adventures, festivals, or as your go-to crochet book bag or bohemian backpack.


📏 Spacious, Practical, and Unmistakably Unique

  • Dimensions: Approximately 36 cm (14 inches) tall x 25 cm (10 inches) wide

  • Material: 100% acrylic yarn – soft, vegan, machine-washable, and designed to last

  • Closure & Structure: Traditional woven top – no metal parts, just pure heritage

  • Straps: Strong, comfortable crochet straps designed for all-day wear as a boho crossbody or backpack

Each bag’s colors and motifs are inspired by the spiritual and symbolic traditions of the Wayuu people. From the story of the spider deity who taught crochet to the significance of color — red for vitality, blue for wisdom, yellow for joy — every stitch tells a story.

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.
