One threaded mochilas are the traditional Wayuu mochila bags. These bags are weaved in ways the Wayuu people have for generations. Wayuu women use one thread while weaving, knits are then tighter, patterns are a lot more detailed, and they take longer to make: around 20 days. Wayuu women make them for each member of the community to use daily.
These mochilas are more rare to find among tourists and in the market.

Two thread Wayuu mochilas are the most well known among tourists world wide. Its affordability and beauty make for a great option for people who are just beginning to know the culture.
Wayuu women have developed an alternative technique to their traditional line, in which they use two threads instead of one when they are weaving. Knits are then looser, bags are made faster and they can keep with the growing demand in less time and at less cost. It takes them 5 days to make them.
