"I've made a very similar hobo bag and found that if I extend the strap on one end and do not join straps with crochet in the middle, I can use 2 wood "cabone" rings to make an adjustable strap (same idea as a fabric belt with 2 "D" rings where you can cinch it tight.) This way, the bag can be worn either as a shoulder or cross-body bag and no worries about the yarn stretching. Also, to reinforce the body, combine main color yarn with a thinner acrylic yarn in a complementary color for a cool tweed/woven effect. (I used a color change yarn with a solid yarn, crocheted as one strand together)."
