Black and White Bucket Bag, "Bold Night"

Bold patterns in black and white are captivating in this hand-crocheted acrylic bucket bag or mochila. Working to preserve their cultural identity and artisanal traditions, artisans of the Wayuu Community create the shoulder bag. The Wayuu are an indigenous people located on the La Guajira Peninsula in northern Colombia. Legend has it that a spider named Wale Keru taught a Wayuu woman how to weave and crochet. The unlined shoulder bag closes with a tassel-accented drawstring.
