RE: Tejido a crochet #14: Bolso tapestry inspirado en las mochilas Wayuu / Tapestry bag inspired by Wayuu backpacks

Your bag is so beautiful: the pattern is amazing and I love this technique. After reading about the Wayuu culture I was so intrigued and I love to learn about techniques which are special for a region or culture. And I feel you on the tension, I find it tough to knit or crochet very tight, my stitches are so loose I always have to go down one ore two needle/hook sizes. But your bag came out so lovely <3

Thank you. I would really like to buy a bag from the same artisans, to see their technique in more detail. About the colours, maybe I overdid it and put too many colours (I don't know). I tried to base it on the Andean landscapes. It would be good to try with only 2 or more colours or to shade it with only one colour. I've seen different combinations and each bag or backpack is unique. Good vibes!
