A few months ago you posted a link to a bag with uneven handles. The long handle spips throughg the short one, so the bag becomes a pouch. I made two of them and now have a request for another one. The problem is that my computer died a wee or so ago and I lost all my collected patterns. I've searched through about 15 pages of links on google, but nothing rings a bell., Could you please post that link again and this time I will keep a paper pattern of anything I download. TIA. Larchie.

Thank you, Jeanne. I'd lost that one too and really wanted to give it a try. Polly
There is one similar on the BHG site, only it doesn't have a round bottom on it.

Larchie, I don't know what your sewing experience background is - but I found the Knot bag instructions left out a lot and the manner of construction was rather tedious. So. I looked at the BH&G pattern that came later and don't see that it is much better. I'm certain that there is a faster and neater way. I wish one of our baggers was here to guide you. Polly
Did you make the Go bag Polly? The only problem I had with it was at the "corners" where the front and back separate to form the handle. You have to do a little fussy sewing there to get it right....but if I can do it anyone can!
Well, you see, Kathyl, that Knot bag is really not much more that a sleeveless dress with one shoulder considerably higher than the other (with a circular bottom of course). I think if I were going to produce a few for gifts I would just have to change the construction plan. That fiddling with blindstitching at the tops of the handles is just not the easiest way. I'm betting there's a way to do the bag and turn through an opening left at one of the side seams. Polly
I made one. Had plans to make more and drew the pattern a little bigger......but it hasn't happened yet.
I agree with you Polly. Will work on it soon. I hope.
Somebody please remind me.... the heat is really getting to me.
