The Bonnie Bag, when laying flat, measures 10.5″ wide by 9″ high, not counting the handles. Bottom measures 2.5″ wide. However, the pattern provides basic instructions on how to increase the bottom for a larger bag.

Although it’s an intermediate pattern, the stitches used are very basic. You only need to know the single crochet, the half double crochet and the slip stitch. However, the pattern requires that you know how to join a new color, work in the round and turn your work.

And the pattern only provides very basic instructions on how to increase the bag bottom and adjust the bag handles for the extra stitches. Thus, knowing how to increase, and how to evenly space the bag handles over more stitches in the round will be an asset if you plan on adjusting this for a custom size.
