Final Assembly

Check for Loose Ends: Weave in any loose yarn ends and ensure all parts are securely attached.
Adjust Shape if Needed: Make sure the bottle is evenly stuffed and holds its shape.

Rows 2-8: CH 1, turn. SC in each stitch across. (24 stitches)
Round 9: Begin working in rounds around the base. SC around the edge of the rectangle, placing 3 SC in each corner to create smooth, rounded edges. (Around 56-60 stitches)
Rounds 10-20: SC in each stitch around for about 11 rounds to form the height of the bag. (56-60 stitches)

Finish Off: FO, leaving a long tail. Attach the purse frame to the top edge of the bag by sewing it in place with a yarn needle.

Step 2: Coca-Cola Logo and Wave Detail

Logo Background: With white yarn, create the classic Coca-Cola wave along one side of the bag. You can either crochet the wave directly onto the bag or embroider it with a yarn needle.
- To Crochet the Wave: Start at the bottom edge of the bag, CH a wavy line, and SC or SL ST along the chain to secure it to the bag in a curved line.
Coca-Cola Text: Using white yarn, embroider the “Coca-Cola” text on the side of the bag. For a more precise look, you can crochet the letters separately and sew them onto the bag or use fabric felt letters.
- Tip: Use a printed template of the Coca-Cola logo as a guide if needed.

Step 3: Handles

Row 1: Starting in the second chain from the hook, SC in each chain across. (29 stitches)
Rows 2-5: CH 1, turn. SC in each stitch across to thicken the handle. (29 stitches)
Finish Off: FO and stuff the handle lightly with fiberfill to make it sturdy. Attach each end to the top side of the bag securely.
- Repeat for the Second Handle: Make another handle following the same instructions and attach it to the opposite side of the bag.

Step 4: Decorative Bow

With Brown Yarn: Make a magic ring, then CH 3. Work 4 HDC into the ring, CH 3, and SL ST back into the ring to form one side of the bow.
Second Side: CH 3, 4 HDC into the ring, CH 3, SL ST to finish.
Pull Tight: Close the ring tightly and wrap the yarn around the center several times to form the bow shape.
Pink Center: With pink yarn, wrap it around the center of the bow to create an accent. Secure with a knot and sew the bow to the front of the bag, just below the clasp.

Step 5: Attaching the Purse Frame

Frame Attachment: Position the purse frame along the top edge of the bag body. Using white yarn and a yarn needle, sew through the holes in the frame and around the top edge of the bag, securing it tightly.
Check for Security: Ensure the frame is attached firmly so it can handle the weight of small items.

Final Assembly

Secure Loose Ends: Weave in any loose yarn ends and check that all parts (logo, handles, and bow) are securely attached.
Shape the Bag: Adjust the shape of the bag by pressing the bottom flat and ensuring the sides are even. Lightly stuff the body if you’d like it to maintain a fuller shape.
