Attach the straps
Cut two 29.5” lengths (75 cm) of faux leather. Poke two holes close to the end of the strap, about ½” apart (1.3 cm) apart and centered on the strap. Then poke two more holes about 1.5” (3.8 cm) further up the strap using a hole punch, sharp tool, or hammer and nail.

With a yarn needle and the same yarn used for the bag, sew the strap to the bag through the holes. Sew through each hole twice as shown at the 24-minute mark of the tutorial video. Knot the ends and weave the ends into the bag.
