The bag is crocheted in two colors using single crochet stitches back and forth, starting from the base and continuing to the bag body. In two-color crochet, one yarn runs along the stitches, and the color is changed on the last yarn-over of the color change stitch. The carried yarn is left one stitch away from the edges on the wrong side. Finished pieces are joined by sewing a zipper to the top edge and crocheting them together with single crochet stitches on the right side of the work. Metal rings are attached to the side seams for the long strap, and short handles are sewn onto the bag body.
