Cut a length of yarn in each colour approximately 12cm and sew through each relevant colour secure with knot on the inside of the bag. You can then secure your straps using the relevant colour by sewing the handles on.
Ensure your handles are lined up correctly on each side of the bag.
Finally, sew in all your loose ends once complete. Your crochet bag is now complete and ready to take to the beach this summer!
Enjoy!
