About Me
My mother taught me how to knit when I was 5. I started knitting little things for my dolls and stuffed animals. Later I knitted some sweaters.
When I was about 15 I started to do cross stitch.
In 2009 I started knitting again.
My mother taught me how to crochet in 2011.
In 2014 I started making Mochilas.
My husband created this site on 27-05-2019 to surprise me.
Weaving a strap for a Mochila
A Mochila can have a woven strap.

Making a Mochila
Making a Mochila Bag takes a lot of effort. To support you I made some videos. Marion Verloop @ YouTube
Mochila patterns
On Internet you can find a lot of patterns.
Most of these patterns are just graphs. A good pattern is a complete document with all the information you need to complete a Mochila Bag. My instruction videos offer you the Basic Techniques needed for making a Mochila Bag.
I have two free Mochila patterns available (look for 'cal') at Facebook group 'Mochila bags, crochet'. (subscription needed).
Paid patterns can be found on Ravelry.
