Japanese Crochet Pattern: The Puff Project Bag (Chart Included)

This project bag features fluffy loops as its main design point. It’s made using a technique called loop stitch, which is unique to crochet.

When filled, it has a soft, plush feel reminiscent of a stuffed animal.
This charming drawstring bag makes the perfect companion for on-the-go crocheting! Of course, it’s not just for WIPs or yarn—feel free to find your own perfect use for it.

Since it can be completed in a relatively short time, it also makes a great little gift.

This project was made with Natural Spinning Mofu, kindly provided by Olympus Thread Manufacturing Co., Ltd.

Made with 50% cotton, this yarn offers a soft and gentle feel—cozy yet breathable—making it a perfect match for year-round projects!
Its irresistibly touchable texture will make you want to take your bag everywhere.

The color used in this sample is White.
With so many adorable shades in the mofu lineup, you might find it hard to choose—enjoy the dilemma!

A video tutorial on how to work the loop stitch is available on the Ronique website, and the pattern includes a direct link for your convenience.

The sample used exactly two balls of yarn, but depending on your personal tension, the length of each loop stitch may vary. If your loops tend to be longer, you might run out of yarn—so it's a good idea to have a little extra on hand, just in case.

By the way, if you prefer a simpler look, you can skip the frilly edging at the drawstring opening and keep it plain.
Feel free to customize it to suit your style!
