I had made a previous Fat Bag from following a youtube video (not until much later did I discover written instructions… the way the cookie crumbles).

Unable to find written instructions for another fat bag that I liked I decided to create my own. Pattern is available in both written and chart format. It’s a simple pattern and whips up pretty quick. The hard part (for me) was the lining of the bag but that is optional. If you use a smaller hook and crochet tightly you may not even need to line it.

I prefer the round handles

Below is a video of some nice crocheted handels. The video is not in English and I am unable to find written instructions. I am working on writing up a similar pattern for future use.
