Very comfortable and thick handles for the bag can be made in just 40 minutes.

To do this, you just need to get acquainted with one simple diagram.

The work will require:

• wide lace;
• yarn;
• The hook is the perfect number for the yarn.

Measurements

We measured the required length of the handle. Next, 5 cm from each edge - this is for a flat element for fastening. We cut off the lace for the middle part of the belt. Be sure to knit a small sample to compare sizes. It gives a better view of the entire knitting density.

Kit

More often, the craftsman is satisfied with a width of 7 stitches, but this is for yarn with an average thread thickness. Such as a children's pekhorka. We collected 7 air loops and three loops for lifting.

Rows

Then knit 7 stitches in each row. It is very important to count three chain stitches in each row as one stitch. This way the strip will be even. First knit a flat element 5 cm. Next, start the middle and finish again with a flat element.

Harness

So many steps for a simple strap. But the model of this product is worth it. For tying, it is better to use single crochets. The model uses contrasting thread. First, tie one side of the flat element, then connect the sides of the strap and start knitting together with interlocking loops, while inserting the lace. After tying the binding, you should fix the lace. Just sew the holes with simple threads and a needle so that it doesn’t fall out. At this point the handles are ready and you can attach them to the bag. With the lace they turn out thick and even.

There is a very similar model - this is a simple belt with 7 double crochets.

It does not require lace or binding. The result is a simple, even strip. It is better to knit these with double thread.

Another option with a lace, but the lace is inserted as each element is knitted. A very convenient way to get a durable product. This method is often used to create doormats, but a belt for a handbag will also look very unusual, smooth, thin, durable and very elegant.

This is the easiest way to create handbag straps. And it is knitted together with the product. For it, air loops are first cast on, and in the next circle the elements are knitted not in the previous row, but in a new chain of air loops.

Another option is when you can tie a wide strip separately, then tie a thick cord:
