Anyone know where I could acquire (preferably free) such a pattern?

I made a pattern for a Ball bag = when you don`t need it as bag it
rolls into a little ball !!!!
you can have it , but i need your private email ,,,
Thanks, Lucille, but it wasn't quite what I was looking for. I had in
mind the mesh ones that every good European housewife keeps tucked in
her pocket in case she finds something worth buying. They used to make
them out of leftover string; my pattern was for Knit-Cro-Sheen.

Now off to Herrschners to order a rainbow of crochet cotton to make
oodles of bags for Christmas gifts. :)
A word of warning. I made several of these some years back - long
before they became fashionable again, so I made up the pattern myself
and had them the same dimensions as a paper grocery sack. They worked
beautifully, BUT, if you try to put anything heavy in them, the handles
will just about cut through your fingers! I still keep a couple in the
car, plus one in the house, along with all my canvas ones, and they are
excellent for lightweight things, but DO NOT attempt to carry a
ten-pound bag of potatoes in one, you will regret it.

Padding! :)
I have some foam tube "toe bandages" that could easily be slipped over
the handles before you attach the second end. Or you could slit the
tube and affix snaps so you can wrap it around the handles as needed.
