15 July, 2026
Are you looking for an original bag to complete your wedding guest looks or add a special touch to any outfit? Learn how to crochet a party bag with Japanese handles thanks to the new video tutorial by Sandra Berrocal @littlewishes_handmade. A modern, comfortable design that is easy to crochet using the eye-catching WOW Paparazzi cord by Katia. 🔥 LITTLE WISHES 🔥

An easy bag full of style

Japanese handles have turned into one of the most popular handmade bag trends. Their design allows you to comfortably carry the bag in your hand or hang it from your wrist, without the need for additional closures or fastenings.

💡 What are Japanese handles? They create a curious closure: one handle is pulled through the other to shape the bag. A minimalist, comfortable and trendy design that doesn’t need additional fastenings.

You can crochet this project in no time. You just need to crochet two identical single crochet panels and join them together to achieve a simple and elegant finish.

Shine bright with WOW Paparazzi

For this project, Sandra used WOW Paparazzi, a limited-edition XXL cord with a sparkly finish. Its volume allows you to make the bag quickly and stands out for its texture and glossy effect.
