Here you can find videos about the work processes I used and described in my Mochila crochet patterns.

If you have never crocheted a mochila before or if you have problems with one or the other step, I recommend you to watch these videos. They will certainly help you to get over (initial) difficulties and the work will be pure pleasure.

They are videos by Marion Verloop, a great Mochila artisan, who kindly allowed me to link her videos. I am very happy to have met her as she is a constant source of inspiration and know-how.
