Full Width Chains:
- At the other end of the zipper, make chains equal to the full width of the zipper tape.
Return to the Starting Side:
- After finishing the chains along the other edge, chain back half the width.
- Join the last chain back to the first chain using a slip stitch.

2. First Round

Begin with single crochet stitches along the initial chains:
- At each corner, make 3 single crochet stitches to create a square corner.
- Continue single crochet along the edges and corners.
To complete the round:
- Join the last stitch to the first loop using a slip stitch.

3. Second & Third Rounds

Second Round (Double Strand):
- Add white yarn to create a thicker and sturdier edge.
- Repeat the same square pattern, making 3 single crochet stitches in each corner loop.
Third Round:
- Work the same square pattern as in the previous round:
  - Continue single crochet, ensuring that each corner loop has 3 single crochet stitches.

4. Body Part (Main Bag Portion)

Attach Yarn:
- Attach the yarn at the marked spot on the zipper edge.
- Work single crochet stitches to begin building the height of the bag.
Turn:
- Use a turning chain (chain 1) and continue crocheting single crochet stitches to form the body.

5. Bottom Part

Single Crochet and Chains:

  - Crochet a section that is 5cm wide.
  - Chain a similar length and then turn with a chain 1.
Build and Continue:
- Repeat the process to form the bottom portion of the bag.

6. Assemble the Bag

Attach all completed portions of the crochet work together:
