This is just a knitted oblong. I knitted a 8 x 24 inch piece in yellow put a runnung stitch through the edge and gathered tightly. I crocheted the yellow circle to the edge of the green that I folded in half. I measure the pieces and made a lining out of fabric which I attached pockets to .before I put it together, I took 2 pieces of fabric and folded them in half and added a zipper then sewed them to the lining. After I had it all together I put the handles on I sewed through the knitting and right through the lining so the handles don't sag. I hand sewed the outside pocket on
