Mochila patterns

Most of my patterns are for Mochila bags. Unlike many graph-only patterns found online, these patterns are complete documents with clear instructions to help you finish your project with confidence.

My instruction videos cover the essential techniques to help you get started with confidence.

In addition to Mochila bags, I also have a few other designs, such as mandalas and coasters.
