ASSEMBLY
Hold 2 squares with wrong sides tog. Sc through the outer loops of all corresponding stitches except the ch sps. When you come to a ch sp, work into the actual ch sp... not through the outer loops of both chains.
Do not fasten off.
Continue joining the next two squares in the same manner until all four sets of squares are joined lengthwise.
Fasten off.
Repeat this joining method widthwise for each section. As you come to the point where the two joins intersect, work over the intersection and continue as before.
Fold the piece so there are 4 squares on the front and 4 squares on the back.
The fold becomes the bottom of the bag.
Join same yarn used in joining squares with a sc in the corresponding corner ch sps on the end opposite the fold. Join cor sts down that side.
Fasten off.
Rep for other side.
Join same yarn with a sc in any st along the open end/top of bag.
Sc in ea st and ch sp around eitire opening. Join with a sl st.
Fasten off.

Leave a 10" length of yarn on each end of handle to use when sewing the
handle onto the bag.

JOIN HANDLE TO BAG
Center the handle evenly on one side of the bag. Using the yarn needle and the yarn tail, sew through cor sts to join.
