Remember when crochet meant your grandma's doilies? Yeah, not anymore. The handmade crochet trend is back, but make it bold, ethical, and seriously fun. At Lumily, we’re celebrating this comeback with a collection of handmade crochet gifts you’ll actually want to carry, toss, or gift. From vibrant coin purses to old-school hacky sacks, these pieces are handmade by women artisans in Guatemala using traditional techniques passed down through generations.
These aren’t just accessories. They’re stories you can hold.
And here’s something even more special: crochet can’t be made by machines. Every twist, loop, and knot has to be done by hand. That’s why no two pieces are ever exactly alike, and why each one carries the time, patience, and skill of the artisan who made it.
1. The Crochet Bag That Goes With Everything
✨ Product Highlight: Eliza Crochet Multicolor Bag
Bright, lightweight, and full of personality, this crochet accessory is a head-turner. Each one is handcrafted over 3 to 4 days by our artisan partners, using colorful cotton string and traditional knotting techniques.
Whether you’re headed to the farmers market or brunch, this bag adds the perfect pop of color to any outfit.
2. Your New Favorite Coin Purse (Trust Us)
✨ Product Highlight: Crochet Coin Purses
Small but mighty, these colorful coin purses are so much cuter than the one you’re currently using. They fit cards, cash, lip balm—even your AirPods. Handmade by women in Guatemala, each one is a celebration of pattern and color.
3. A Hacky Sack That Brings the Fun Back
✨ Product Highlight: Crochet Hacky Sacks
Yes, hacky sacks. They’re back. And they're way cooler than you remember. Our crochet hacky sacks are tightly woven for just the right bounce and filled with recycled plastic beads. Each one takes hours to make and comes in vibrant designs you won’t find anywhere else.
4. Summer-Ready Crossbodies
✨ Product Highlight: Summer Chevron Crochet Bag
Meet your go-to warm weather bag. This drawstring crochet crossbody bag is soft, light, and big enough to hold your essentials without weighing you down. Perfect for beach days, festivals, or everyday errands.
5. Gifts That Mean Something
✨ Mix + Match Accessories
Each piece in our crochet collection is made by hand and designed to last. They’re not mass-produced. They’re made by women, mostly mothers, earning fair wages while preserving cultural traditions. Gifting one of these pieces means telling someone, "I thought about this. I support women. I care about where things come from."
🎥 Watch the Makers in Action
Ever wonder what goes into creating these vibrant pieces? Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at the talented women artisans in Guatemala as they crochet each bag, coin purse, and hacky sack by hand.
✅ Why it matters: This isn’t fast fashion. It’s slow, skilled, and full of heart.
✅ Why it works: Every stitch has a story. And that story travels with whoever carries it.
Crochet is cool again. But at Lumily, it never stopped being powerful.
