👜 Paleteada Crochet Wayuu Bag – Where Color Meets Craft

Step into the world of vibrant, artisanal elegance with the Paleteada Crochet Wayuu Bag, a breathtaking display of crochet artistry that brings a splash of color and bohemian charm to your wardrobe. Lovingly handcrafted by the skilled women of the Wayuu community across Colombia and Venezuela, each bag is a unique expression of cultural heritage, craftsmanship, and personal style.

Cool-toned beauty meets cultural heritage in the Wuitusu Handmade Wayuu Crochet Bag, showcasing a mix of rich navy, turquoise, cream, and black in striking geometric patterns. Handcrafted by Wayuu artisans in Colombia, this boho chick bag is equal parts statement and story.


🎨 Boho Style, Rooted in Tradition

Each handmade crochet bag showcases the traditional “paleteada” technique — a meticulous crochet method known for its geometric brilliance and dynamic color combinations. The result? A colorful crochet handbag that’s lightweight, expressive, and unlike anything mass-produced.

  • Size: 9–13 inches in diameter and depth — spacious and easy to carry

  • Strap: Handwoven and adjustable from 32 to 40 inches — perfect as a shoulder or boho crossbody

  • Material: Vegan, ethically sourced acrylic yarn — soft, strong, and made to last

  • Structure: Unlined, with a natural, breathable drape that honors the handmade construction

Whether you wear it as a summer crochet bag, a crochet book bag, or your everyday go-to, the Paleteada bag adapts effortlessly to your lifestyle.


💚 Ethical Fashion That Empowers

By choosing this bohemian crochet bag, you're not only embracing artistry — you're uplifting lives. Every purchase:

  • Directly supports Wayuu artisans and their matrilineal weaving traditions

  • Aligns with Wuitusu’s commitment to Fair Trade LA standards

  • Contributes to the Wayuu Taya Foundation, where every $50 spent helps feed five Wayuu children


🎁 A Unique Crochet Bag with Heart

Whether you're shopping for yourself or someone who values handmade craftsmanship and meaningful design, the Paleteada Wayuu Bag is the perfect choice. It’s more than a bag — it’s a piece of living culture, made with care and worn with pride.

Carry color. Carry culture. Carry 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.
