I saw one of these already made up at Joann's and Immediately thought of the ones I could make and actually use. They don't necessarily have to be done for crocheting projects but would be good for storage if you are short on space. I could totally see these bags under the cabinet especially in the bathrooms.

Hi there - here is more information from the pattern designer, Robyn: "What the instructions are doing is setting up where the handles are placed on the bag. You can ignore the stitch numbers, and start anywhere, chain the number of stitches that give you the length of handle you want( I did 6), slip stitch, and then single crochet around till you get to where you want the next handle, chain the same amount of stitches(6), slip stitch and single crochet till you come back to the first handle. The second round, single crochet around, including the handle, and slip stitch to end." Hope that helps - Julia from FaveCrafts
