Materials:   Jute cord 5 mm crochet cord Size:  Length - 30 cm Width- 38 cm Handles: 50 cm We are going to crochet in spiral to avoid the seam. We are going to crochet in back loops to create more ribbed texture.  We will start with the chain that can be any length  depending how big you want your bag. The base is an oval that has 2 increase on both sides of 3 stitches to make corners. Basically we need to crochet a rectangular.  After that we will crochet around without increase until the desired length.  HERE THE FULL VIDEO TUTORIAL:
