Granny Square Bag/Purse

Granny Squares and Bags
This was pretty easy and fast to make.
It's simply made from 6 granny squares sewn together.
Then I used the crochet moss stitch around the top of the bag.
I have found a very strong way of making the handles for the bags.
It's simply a length of chain-hdc around both sides of the chain, then complete with rsc (crab st).
That hdc is American English. I suppose the translation for it would be htrbl.
I read so many American English patterns, I find my self writing in those terms.
