Crochet an adorable crossbody bag that looks like a huggable amigurumi doll! This fun, animal themed purse is in the shape of a kitty cat wearing a cute dress and a bow on her head. It is easily customizable with different yarn colors and appliques. It is unisex as you can also turn the doll into a “boy” version by leaving out the dress skirt portion and changing yarn colors to create the look of pants and a shirt.
It is almost a no-sew project as the legs, body, dress, head, and straps are all made without any sewing. The only parts that are attached at the end include the arms and the bow, making it quite beginner-friendly.
This sweet and easy pouch works up quickly using super bulky velvety yarn, and can also be substituted with other chunky yarn (e.g., blanket yarn).
Crochet this trendy accessory as a gift for kids of all ages, from toddlers and children to teens! Even adults, such as cosplayers or those who love the kawaii aesthetic, will enjoy this cute purse! It’s great as a birthday gift, Christmas or holiday gift, or as a craft fair and market product.
