Here's the crochet along project that I just finished. It's the Fat Bottom Bag from the "Stitch 'N Bitch: The Happy Hooker" book. It's supposed to have the ring bamboo type handles but I couldn't find any locally so I just crocheted my own handles. It's also the first bag I've ever lined, so that was a new adventure also.  |

That is a gorgeous bag!!!!! I have been wanting to crochet one since I saw one on another forum. I can't wait to order the book with the pattern.
Is there a classification of if the bag is easy, intermediate, or advanced?
Does the pattern come with instructions on how to crochet the handles, or did you just improvise them, yourself?

Thank you very much. The book doesn't have difficulty degrees but the pattern only has about 4 different stitches so it's very easy to do and quick. The book doesn't have intructions for the handles, it's says to buy them. I just did a chain of 65 then did sc in each chain for about 4 rows, then just sewed the 1st row to the 4th row to make them round. They were really simple also.
