Drawstring Bucket Tote

This is based on the Encantada Crochet Bag
I used leftover yarn I had lying around.

This is the finished bag.  I didn't like the floppiness of it.  The closure is part of the backpack straps.  All one long piece of crochet.

So I searched for something round to stiffen up the bottom of the bag.  I found this 8" wooden plaque.

I just knit in a continuous circle until I had something large enough to cover it.

Then crocheted it to the bottom of the bag as close to center as possible.

The bag with the bottom support.  My next change would be the straps.
