Crochet Reversible Bag Handle Pattern

Crochet materials and tools:

<> Crochet hook 4 mm

<> Bermuda Ribbon, Schaffhauser –51% cotton, 49% acrylic.

<> Swivel hook clasp

Crochet reversible bag handle pattern:

Take the clasp and make 4 loops through its ring. Insert the yarn into the ring and weave through to create the loops. Turn the clasp so the working yarn is on the left side. Insert the hook underneath all 4 loops, yarn over, and pull through all 4 loops.

*Then, insert the hook under the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th loops, yarn over, and pull through all 3. You will have 2 loops on the hook. Next, insert the hook under the 3rd and 4th loops, yarn over, and pull through 2 loops, resulting in 3 loops on the hook. Finally, insert the hook under only the 4th loop, yarn over, and pull through 1 loop to have 4 loops on the hook. Yarn over and pull through all 4 loops. Repeat from * until the bag handle reaches the desired length.

To attach the clasp to the other side of the bag handle, cut the yarn, leaving a 30 cm tail. Weave the tail through the ring, then through the first loop. Weave the tail again and pull it under the second loop. Repeat this process until you have 4 loops woven. Finally, weave in any remaining ends.
