Crochet Mount Fuji Drawstring Pouch

Inspired by Japan’s most iconic mountain, this Mount Fuji Drawstring Pouch captures its graceful silhouette in a clean, minimalist design.

Rather than creating a character-style motif, the design was intended to blend naturally into everyday life with a refined, understated look.

Despite its compact size, the pouch is practical enough to hold small essentials such as lip balm, earbuds, or other everyday accessories.

You might even enjoy choosing a special keepsake or travel charm to carry inside, making it feel like a little good-luck companion wherever you go.

Whether you’re crocheting for yourself or as a thoughtful gift, this timeless pattern can be enjoyed year-round in your favorite yarn.

Crochet Techniques Used in This Pattern

This pattern is worked primarily with half double crochet stitches (hdc).

The pattern also includes helpful notes and little tips to make the project easier and more enjoyable to crochet.

A video tutorial is available for the Two-strand chain cord used for the drawstring, so you can follow along if you’re new to the technique.

The sample shown in the photos was made with Coton Bebe (100% cotton) from Amimonet, creating a soft and gentle look.

The finished pouch measures approximately 5.5 cm (2.2”) tall × 11.5 cm (4.5”) wide, making it a perfect palm-sized accessory. A photo beside a button is included to help you visualize the scale.

This little project would look lovely in both summer and winter yarns. I hope you’ll enjoy crocheting it whenever you have a little spare time between projects.
