Summary
A creativeAnimal Crossingfan has made a crochet Bell bag, based off the design seen in the games. Fellow fans are impressed at their efforts, especially as they’re fairly new to crochet.
InAnimal Crossing, the Bell bag is an item holding a set amount of the game’s standard in-game currency, Bells. The small sack’s repeated appearances in the games have made it iconic for fans, leading some to want to bring the item into the real world for personal use.
Reddit user andAnimal Crossingfan strawberry__daifuku shared their take on the Bell bag with fellow fans on the site’s mainAnimal Crossingseries subreddit. The bag replicates the shape and colors of the in-game object perfectly, with a big star on the side and a red string holding it closed. While aBell bag propwould be appreciated by many fans, several were outspoken at how they thought it was cool that this could be used as a real bag, as it’s shown both open and secured shut.
Strawberry__daifuku apparently created this bag with the intent of using it as a coin purse, mimicking its original purpose. Several fellow fans had questions for strawberry__daifuku, who graciously responded. Apparently, strawberry__daifuku is still learning how to crochet, but managed to produce the base bag design without a pattern. The star was based upon a pattern they found online, and the whole project took them three days, though they noted a moreexperienced crochetermight be able to make one in a single day.
Unfortunately for those who were ready to spend theirAnimal CrossingBellsor real-world cash to purchase the bag, it’s not for sale, and the creator doesn’t have any current plans for that to change. However, the post seems to have inspired many other gamers, who have expressed a desire to create their own versions of the bag. One commenter expressed an interest in making one to hold cat treats, and strawberry__daifuku liked the idea enough to consider doing the same.
